FakirSkolens Eksamen 2* (The Fakir School Exam 2) by Pain Solution answers to the second year curriculum and is more demanding, sharper and more pointed than the previous. The development of the students is visible.
FakirSkolens Eksamen 2 is a reality show as much as a theatre performance. The characters build on the biographies of the performers and become the actors’ alter egos. Not least, all that happens onstage is real, all props are real and all pain is real.
Sideshow is a niche genre within the field of performing arts. The challenge is breaking down the prejudices in the audience. Pain Solution considers it a mission to bring sideshow to the people and to strengthen the genre which was at a time powerfully represented within the working classes as well as in high society.
