Marquis Kit de la Balene

The beautiful country of Beggarland is called a little circle of confetti, a speck on the world map. By all means, it must regain its former glory! Of course, something will have to be sacrificed for the greater goal, but... what won’t you do for the good of the kingdom?! With such thoughts, the royal family decides on a grand project – a solemn banquet for selected guests from all over the world. And the crown dish will be… a whale. And it will indeed glorify the country – though not in the way the ruler expects. This social play is striking in its abundance of subtexts. The "Marquis" is about pseudo-patriotism, pride, family relationships, and even love. And let the dramatic form not be an obstacle! It is precisely this bright and at times absurdist text that allows for conversations about pressing issues with teenagers.
