Synopsis: 'Money controls the world we live in. Whether you have it or not, the power of money is a driving force; determining lives, characters and actions. In this brand new production Belarus Free Theatre explore how theatre has depicted money throughout the ages; from ancient Greece, through the Elizabethan golden-age to today's fractured economy.'

The show is classed as 'devised documentary theatre', and is based on both Aristophanes' 'Plutus' and Ben Johnson's work 'The Staple of News'.
