PAY UP, A SITE-SPECIFIC PERFORMANCE INSTALLATION, ABOUT BUYING AND SELLING
"The OBIE Award-winning Pig Iron Theatre Company
("One of the few groups successfully taking theatre in new directions" – NYT) brings you a real-world lesson about money, monkeys, and the paradox of choice in a consumerist society.

Part circus, part shopping experience, and part sociology experiment, this site-specific interactive performance installation takes its audience on a choose-your-own-adventure tour of the human psyche’s experience of regret, confusion, and playfulness in matters of economic choice.

Unsettling equations arise as real money changes hands among friends, siblings, lovers and strangers. Based on the experiments of Yale economist Keith Chen, PAY UP gives you your money’s worth in a fascinating and provocative romp through a wholly-enveloping world ruled by the almighty dollar."
