In this story the donkey proves his intelligence: “Something better than death can be found everywhere,” he says and clears off. This is how the story of the “Bremen Town Musicians” begins, an early road movie from the children’s fairytale collection of the Grim brothers. During his travels, the donkey meets the dog, they both meet the cat, and the three of them the rooster. The four fellow sufferers form a sworn community that consoles itself in the face of life’s adversity.

About the time preceding her first documents, Miriam Yung Min Stein had only the mythical information obtained from the adoption services office: “In 1977 you were found wrapped in newspaper inside a box in South Korea.” How does one tell the story of one’s origins when, as in Stein’s case, the recording can begin with arriving in a German airport? “Black Tie” orbits the black hole of ancestry as well as the odd and much discussed human genetics issues of today’s support industry.

After three pieces using larger texts as their subject – Schiller’s “Wallenstein,” the first volume of Marx’s “Capital” and the “Breaking News” of the evening news – Rimini Protokoll’s new work directs its microscopic gaze to the documents of a life.

In the dead of night, two “poor Romanians” roam about a small Polish province pumped full with a wonder drug that erases all sense of suffering. As the numbing dose wears off, they turn into a quirky Polish-speaking couple that, following a drug party, unwillingly spends their first night together.

Dorota Masłowska, born 1983, is considered the greatest young talent in Polish literature today. She became known through her utterly intriguing linguistic and grammatical inventions, which boldly convey the feelings and thoughts of a new generation in Poland. Her debut novel, “Snow White and Russian Red,” was written when Dorota Masłowska was 18, and for the novel “The Queen’s Peacock” she received Poland’s coveted Nike Literary Prize in 2006.

In this interpretation all images of a fixed character as idea of a realistic individual are being abandoned. The given characters of this play are being used by the players merely as strategic options for a certain attitude and behaviour - which they can adopt, neglect, swap or barter anytime the rules permit them to. Georg Schareggs production reduces the "comedy for serious people"s personel to 4 dead-serious players behind their double amount in characters. Pleasant Entertainment!

About the time preceding her first documents, Miriam Yung Min Stein had only the mythical information obtained from the adoption services office: “In 1977 you were found wrapped in newspaper inside a box in South Korea.” How does one tell the story of one’s origins when, as in Stein’s case, the recording can begin with arriving in a German airport? “Black Tie” orbits the black hole of ancestry as well as the odd and much discussed human genetics issues of today’s support industry.

After three pieces using larger texts as their subject – Schiller’s “Wallenstein,” the first volume of Marx’s “Capital” and the “Breaking News” of the evening news – Rimini Protokoll’s new work directs its microscopic gaze to the documents of a life.

While the red sun sinks behind the nuclear power plant, permanent campers pitch their tents to pass the time around the camp fire or at the torture pole: Polish cowboys, East-German Indian impersonators and a nouveau-riche undertaker from Berlin-Neukölln. Behind the scenes the crisis is raging: In this western you can experience the state of things of tomorrow already today – beyond law and mercy. Capitalism is not over, it has just begun…

In this interpretation all images of a fixed character as idea of a realistic individual are being abandoned. The given characters of this play are being used by the players merely as strategic options for a certain attitude and behaviour - which they can adopt, neglect, swap or barter anytime the rules permit them to. Georg Schareggs production reduces the "comedy for serious people"s personel to 4 dead-serious players behind their double amount in characters. Pleasant Entertainment!

The journalist Robert Saviano has researched and analyzed the inner workings of today’s organized crime. Southern Italy’s Camorra is the highly-active symbol for a living and living-among-us entrapment of capitalism as a life-consuming economy. How many euros is a life worth? Shamelessly, the Mafia asks this question – and it has little to fear: its system is our system in a slightly different guise.  

Roberto Saviano
Roberto Saviano grew up near the city of Naples in a Camorra stronghold. In 2006 he published the documentary novel “GOMORRA,” which exposes practices of organized crime and their direct connection to the economy and politics. Saviano was the first to mercilessly name the perpetrators involved, for which the author achieved fame and at the same time forfeited to a large degree his personal freedom. “GOMORRA” was filmed by Matteo Garrone in 2008.
