`The Tower` is an opera musical about a group of people who live in the same concrete block of flats and who plan building a sugar tower together. Full of absurd and anxiety, the story of the utopian project is addressing the history of post war housing architecture analysing it from the position of its user, the inhabitant of a modernist city. The dreams and desires are juxtapositioned with difficult reality of life in the blocks and contradictions inscribed in the modernists` plans.
