Treasure City is a performance that delves into the city’s 5-stars allure and wonders: who pays the bill? The show runs to the rhythm of stand-up comedy, with lots of irony included, and explores the transformation of industrial spaces into luxurious neighbourhoods. Real estate properties are sought after like gold, and behind the surface of a smart city, public space fades totally away.
Oscillating between promises of progress and the suffocating reality of soaring prices, Treasure City is a journey along the process of accelerated urbanization, with humor, energy, and maybe just a tad of nostalgia.
