Varför ska jag lära mig det här?
by Paula Brante

We meet and follow three protagonists from daycare to middle age, and see how expectations and norms regarding gender affect them and steers their lives in different directions. With a large portion of humour and a brechtian approach this play wants to put you as a youth, parent or adult against the wall and ask you; What power do you have in yours and others lives, and what do you do with it?
