About the work

Satire of subtle differences

Svenja tries her best to be a good person. She wants to improve the world with a blend of humour and humanism. But she also has an evil side. And her evil alter ego despises the poor and the weak and it is not afraid to say it out loud. ‹Café Populaire› is a subtle satire about our society, in which social classes are no longer mentioned. Nora Abdel-Maksoud was named young director of the year in 2017. With ‹Café Populaire›, she has managed to create a sensationally honest work. The production was invited to the 2019 Swiss Theatre Meeting.

Somewhere between painfully true and hilariously funny.
