Franzi has just awoke from a coma in East Berlin. She was asleep since 1989. She has awoken to a world where walls, systems, and heroes hold a different place in society. How can we help her to understand how things have changed? Or have they? From international performer April Albert, KAPITALISM IS YOUR FRIEND is a rollicking, dark comedy with a pumping. Dancing may be required.
