Beschreibung
I'm a hard worker. I don't push him to the . . . You know I don't go out for breaks when I'm not supposed to. I don't stay in the loo when I'm not supposed to. If I was that kind of person I could have him done for discrimination . . . I just get on with things you know.

Four people arrive to work the night shift in a meat factory. They meet for the first time. They are employed as cleaners by a temp agency. They are all on zero-hours contracts.

Every shift, they clean. Every four hours, they take a break. They drink tea or coffee together. They read magazines. They chat. As it gets light, they go home or to another job. The cycle goes on. And on. Strangers. Until something stirs, until isolated people get too close to one another, too fast.

Alexander Zeldin's brutally honest and darkly humorous play, written through devising with the ensemble of the premiere production, exposes stories of an invisible class. It received its world premiere at The Yard on 1 July 2014 and transferred to the National Theatre's Temporary Theatre on 28 April 2015.

Über den Autor
At university, Alexander Zeldin created a production of Calderon de La Barca's Constant Prince in Cairo, working with local musicians. After graduating, he began work at the Mariinsky Opera directing the Russian premiere of Powder her Face, as well as works by Puccini and Ravel. In 2010 he was selected to helm the European Theatre Company at the Napoli Teatro Festival Italia, collaborating again with artists from the Middle East on a production of Romeo and Juliet in Arabic and Italian. In 2011, he was invited to South Korea to direct Macbeth with Yi Youn Taek's Goripae Group (Korean Critics' Choice) and in January 2012, he created a new music and dance-theatre work, "Shemehé", for the British Council-National Theatre Studio-Rustaveli, National Theatre Georgia and Black Battles with Dogsat the Southwark Playhouse. In 2013, he assisted Peter Brook and Marie Helène Estienne on their revival of A Magic Flute. He has also collaborated with dancer Mélanie Lomoff on Code Unknown (Opera Estate/ Bassano Del Grappa, Mousonturm Frankfurt). Since 2011, Alexander Zeldin has formed an ensemble of actors in the UK. Their projects include Doing the Idiots (National Theatre Studio 2012 - a response to Lars Von Trier's film The Idiots), Shemehe and Beyond Caring (Yard Theatre, 2013). His work has been recognised by a nomination to the Rolex Mentor Protege Award in 2012, for the leading young artistic voices of the future.
