Dead Cat Bounce

Details

Boing! A dead cat bounce is a term used by traders in the finance industry to describe a pattern where a spectacular decline in the price of a stock is immediately followed by a small temporary rise before resuming its downward movement. It is derived from the notion that "even a dead cat will bounce if it falls from a great height". An informal performance with three wise men who discuss the modern world, the economic and cultural crisis and the possible futures suggested by the 'experts'. This hilarious onstage think-tank culminates in a thorough, bizarre and surreal guide as to how a person may 'survive and thrive' in the uncertain and scary world that is the future.
