This play follows Stan and Sven, two teenagers who throw themselves into bodybuilding until it becomes destructive: they lose a girlfriend, ruin their bodies and fall for misogynistic ideologues. Told from the perspective of a brother and a girlfriend, it shows how families and friends are affected too, and also touches on other body-optimisation trends like looksmaxxing and bonesmashing. Two actors play all the male and female roles in a physical, humorous production with music and songs. It lasts about 70 minutes, followed by a conversation with the performers.
