På våren 2020 spelades premiären för Operaverkstans version av Eugène Ionescos pjäs Ledaren. Det blev inga fler föreställningar därefter, men till hösten 202...

Everyone is waiting for the Leader's arrival. The enthusiastic Announcer eagerly tells about the Leader to two admirers and a young love couple. The announcer is the only one who sees the Leader and therefore commands how the admirers should behave and where they should place themselves. The love couple never seems to have met before and do not know each other's names, but immediately decide to get married. The announcer tells about how the Leader shakes hands with people, pats small children on the head or cuddles with a hedgehog. The excitement increases as the Leader gets closer, but also the confusion over what is actually happening. When the Leader finally comes in, it turns out that he lacks a head! Oh! But everyone seems equally happy about it. Or maybe someone will be thoughtful…
