A company meeting room: four candidates attending a job interview go through mysterious tests, each trying to outdo the others and secure the position. Written in 2003 by Jordi Galceran, the play exposes the ruthless side of today’s corporate world and brought the author international acclaim. Semaver Kumpanya’s long-running repertoire piece The Method returns to the stage in the company’s 23rd year, after more than a decade on its lineup.

Single act / 2 hours

What happens when grief spills into everything around you? A magical realism theatre comedy about loss and the unexpected ways we cope when life falls apart. Inspired by 40+ real-life stories gathered through a social media callout, Deluge blurs imagination with reality and physicality as one woman finds her inner world tipping sideways into ladders, Komodo dragons, and a thousand kilos of jam.

Deluge will be on 25 September at the Zorlu PSM %100 Studio stage as part of the 8th Istanbul Fringe Festival.
