«The Human Factor»: Depth and Relevance on the stage of the Maly Drama Theater
The play «The Human Factor» on the stage of the Maly Drama Theater promises to be a real sensation in the world of theatrical art. It is based on the multi-genre novel of the same name by Francois Emmanuel, Belgian author, member of the Belgian Academy of French Language and Literature. The play uses the laws of the detective, an appealing and fascinating form of narration for the audience. The plot centers on the halving of the staff of a large multinational corporation FARB in the run-up to the 2008 global financial crisis. The psychologist Simon Kessler, guided by strict criteria, chooses candidates for dismissal, but a meeting with the managing director of the company turns out to be a turning point, forcing him to reconsider his attitude to values and to penetrate the meaning of the events that have occurred.
François Emmanuel's work will amaze the viewer with its depth and relevance of the themes it touches. The element of detective, crossed with questions of morality and ethics, plunges the viewer into a world of confusing situations and unexpected turns of events. The battle of mind and conscience, manifested on stage, will take everyone into the world of inner struggle and search for their place in modern society.
This unique play acts not only as an entertainment, but also as a production in which the important voices of the time are heard. It will make you think about what makes up our destiny and the role we play in society. Brilliant directing and acting, combined with the author's profound thoughts, will immerse the audience in an atmosphere of intellectual and emotional delight.
