‘The best way to rob a bank, is to own one’
— William Crawford, Commissioner of the California Department of Savings and Loans

You can read 'lies' in the title, or 'eyes',
or Pound, Yen, Euro and Dollar.
anyhow, whether falsities or currencies, it's about money.

Ontroerend Goed invites you to get under the skin of the well-to-do
the 1%, the super rich
the ones who pull the strings,
the faces we never get to see.

For one night, you can take their chairs.
You call the shots.
You're in the centre of our economic system.
You shape the course.

And who knows, you might make the world a better place,
more fair, more responsible,
because you'll do things differently, for sure.

After the Personal Trilogy (The Smile off your Face, Internal & A Game of You), which tested your self-knowledge one-on-one, and the confrontation with your voting behaviour in Fight Night, Ontroerend Goed aims at what you truly value: Money.

Many experts say that if we realised what money really is, there would be a revolution. The whole system would implode because the trust, which is essential, would melt away like snow in the sun. Ontroerend Goed invites you to get around the table and play the system from within.

P.S. If you come, please take some money. Cash, because we don't trust the pixels on your screen that tell us how much money you supposedly possess.

Since its premiere in 2017, £¥€$ has been travelling the globe, enticing audiences with gaming elements, luscious atmosphere and the immersion in the rush of the financial world. It comes as no surprise that remakes have been made in Moscow, Kazachstan, Hong Kong and Shanghai. In the summer of 2019, Ontroerend Goed performed the French version of £¥€$ for the first time in the official selection of the prestigious Festival d’Avignon.

'What Ontroerend Goed has done with '£¥€$' is far more powerful than simply presenting a play about greed and corruption. We can feel the damage done and we have no-one else to blame. It's a lesson for us all.'

What’s On Stage

Su Carroll

'This carefully crafted, immersive show is quite simply wonderful and even a tad addictive for some.'

Le Dauphine

Sophie Bauret

'Under the ever-reliable direction of Alexander Devriendt, this is as polished a performance as you will see in Edinburgh and should be on everyone’s must-see list, especially those of politicians and bankers.'
