What if we changed our constitution?
This disruptive and collaborative show puts forward the idea of rethinking our democracy. Surrounded by legal practitioners and political scientists from several Belgian universities, Christophe Meierhans has taken on the task of writing up a new constitution for a democracy without elections.
Blending theatre, performance and political debate, the show invites spectators to speak up at any moment when they are in doubt, disagree, or have a question. In this way the show follows a different chronology and development every night.
