lockdown

This morning everything was as usual. Tess left for work even though she didn't feel like it. She put on her bike shoes, ran down the stairs, got on her bike and rode away through the deserted streets. A completely normal day in the new abnormality. But now she's disappeared. Her cell phone is off. Her boss has no idea where she is. But she should have been back home long ago. So you go looking. Each for yourself, with everyone together. In the crisis-inspired spontaneous production LOCKDOWN by the game theater collective machina eX, the audience slips into the role of Tess' flatmates. The smartphone becomes the stage and the sofa the playing field. In chats and calls, in familiar and unfamiliar places on the Internet, a story unfolds that the players can play a key role in shaping from their living rooms. Will they succeed in bringing the clues together in time? A game about everyday emergency situations and being together during times of isolation. To play, you need a smartphone with the messenger Telegram installed.
