„At least Noah could send out a bird for the olive branch. We fried all the chickens.“

Sun 25. 10. 18:00 200 — 1780 CZK

An ordinary Sunday at one of the world-famous fast-food franchises – FCK. Chickens are fried, customers keep coming in, and everything is running smoothly. Until the raindrops start falling from the sky. What begins as an ordinary shower soon turns into a biblical-scale catastrophe, trapping a group of customers inside the restaurant — people who would never normally speak to one another. But now their lives may depend on it, and they have no choice but to stick together. Not the part-time cashier, not the economics students, not even the mayor of Prague and his son, nor the Indian tourist can say for certain whether this night won’t be their last.

This original stage production explores the absence of moral values, deep fractures in society’s worldview, and, naturally, consumerism. All wrapped in the guise of a trashy comedy packed with insults, accusations, and bitter remarks.


“May humanity be granted a second chance somewhere in the next world.”


P. S. Any resemblance to existing fast-food franchises is purely coincidental — and if necessary, we’ll gladly deny it in court.
