The world of money is characterized by a storm of events – a code of deadly danger. ONE DAY MORE/Extravaganza voyages into money’s apocalyptic heart of darkness, transcending all restraint in the rhythm of attack and crisis, adorned with the symbols of barbarity. The story of financial crisis is told as a mega-musical, a genre developed in the early 1980s when financial markets and commercial theatre each took on a new dimension. ONE DAY MORE/Extravaganza is a catastrophe clothed in music, a tornado of violence, conquest and pure, unadulterated kitsch before the world collapses in one terrific blackout: the odyssey of a 28-year-old billionaire and fund manager, who leaves his apartment for an appointment with his hairdresser on the other side of town.
