Where are we? We don't know. Where did we come from? We don't remember. But now it's the time for a cup of tea

A physical comedy about three eccentrics sharing a crammed run-down flat: bulbs burning out, pipes bursting, mosquitoes biting, brains jammed, the outer world sending threatening signals... But these gentlemen want to have tea, and they will have it, even if the entire world is falling to pieces!
UNDER CONSTRUCTION pulls the audience into a poetic, phantasmagoric realm, saturated with absurd humour. And beyond the clownesque and the grotesque, the physical virtuosity and the laughter, the show reveals insights about the world and how we cope with it.
“The whole world can fit in a teapot” - Chinese proverb
Three men wake up in the morning and slowly head in one direction - towards the kettle: the magic key for the new day.
They press the button and wait, cups in their hands. But the world is unpredictable, and nothing can be taken for granted. Suddenly, all phones and gadgets start to ring. A huge cockroach jumps out of the kettle. Men start to boil instead of the the kettle; pipes burst, flat fills up with smoke, mosquitoes attack... Kettle seems to be dead. But these gentlemen want to have tea, and they will have it, even if the entire world falls into pieces!
In the pursuit of their modest desire, the three men gradually destroy their apartment, and finally discover that the kettle was unplugged!
Happy end follows and everybody is welcome to the tea party.
