Four desperate unemployed workers vying for the same job confront the one person standing in the way of their goal. Rehearsed separately by five different theatre companies, for each performance one actor from each company will be called to perform 'without a net', with actors meeting actors on stage for the first time, as the characters are meeting on stage for the first time. 25 performances, 25 opening nights. No two performances are the same. All performed 'without a net'!!!
