Overview

This new work by the internationally revered Back to Back Theatre centres on three warehouse employees struggling with a seemingly meaningless task. As they physically toil, they also grapple with intellectual obstacles — questions of inclusion, identity and cooperation. This intriguing piece of contemporary storytelling reflects on the often-overlooked and vulnerable voices in a world where outrage and righteousness can be deafening.

Winner of the 2024 Venice Golden Lion for Lifetime Achievement, Back to Back Theatre's latest triumph pushes the characters on stage to challenge the limitations of their bodies and their capacity to care. Multiple Bad Things is a dynamic work that explores real-world struggles the way only truly innovative art can.
