West in Peace oder der letzte Sommer der Indianer - andcompany&Co. Sarah Günther, Alexander Karschnia, Nicola Nord, Sebastian Šuba, Sascha Sulimma&Co
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.

andcompany&Co. is an international performance-collective, which was founded in 2003 by Alexander Karschnia, Nicola Nord and Sascha Sulimma to work with artistic partners on the interface of theater & theory, politics & practice. Their performances are a humorous game with facts & fiction, which packs bits and pieces of aesthetic & philosophical projects of the 20th century musically and mixes them into a new political statement.
