Programme

FIGURENTHEATER

»Confetti« // Emilien Truche & Johannes Schropp

In a dark room, two figures sit facing each other, as if time had stood still. Who are these two? Doppelgängers? Who is the man, who is the doll? Is the party already over? Were there any guests at all? Will it remain this quiet? Gradually, a bond develops between them, wavering between tenderness and conflict, confusion and amazement. Where will this lead?

»Confetti-man – das Leben ist ein Fest« // Anne-Kathrin Klatt

A person lives their life on a safe, predictable path. What if control suddenly slips away? What if something happens out of the blue? Is the moon still in the sky when no one is looking? Does the hare know that it lives in the universe? Is the chair merely an idea? What is reality? A bizarre theatrical experiment straddling the line between pseudoscience and trash.

FILM

Short Film Special // Stuttgarter Filmwinter

A curated selection of short films from Stuttgarter Filmwinter, curated by Giovanna Thierry, adds a cinematic perspective to the evening and enters into a thematic dialogue with the stage works.
