About the play
THE INSIDER is a sound-intense and suspense-filled performance combining 3D and cinematic sound, live acting and video projection. It is about deception, genius, greed and the cum-ex tax scam!
Get inside the frontal lobes of a young financier who helped devise the world’s biggest robbery of the treasuries of the European states amounting to more than 53 billion Euro!
