The new play by the Bellevue di Monaco theater group is about global players, corporations and refugees who travel the world and cross borders. In its traditional sense, the term "global player" refers to economic players who participate in international competition and achieve global supremacy by tapping into markets outside their national headquarters. However, global players are also footballers who cross borders as refugees without passports or money. Border crossers who make their way to Germany underage. A global player who innovatively crosses borders - as companies do - in order to participate in the international market. While economic players enforce the removal of borders for their markets, ever higher borders are being erected for others. EU borders are becoming increasingly difficult to cross, yet people are deciding to do so. In doing so, they perform at their best, traveling long distances, crossing oceans, jumping over high walls, performing almost Olympic feats. They are the true global players.
