KAPITALISM IS YOUR FRIEND!
Franzi has been asleep since 1989. She fell into a coma in East Berlin and has woken to a world where the Wall has fallen and capitalism has thrown one hell of a party. Can she navigate this brave new world?

From international performer April Albert, KAPITALISM IS YOUR
FRIEND! is a rollicking dark comedy where political systems, the patriarchy, and David Hasselhoff collide. Dancing may be required.
