SCHAUSPIEL
The world is coming to an end. And this time for real. No headline, no metaphor, no Hollywood script.
What remains? 15 voices. 15 bodies. 15 perspectives between hope and resignation, anger and humor, chaos and silence. No order, no consolation, no grand plan. Just people - on the edge. Trying to hold on somehow - to memories, to each other, to nothing.
It is an attempt to tell the end without being final. A performative overload. A sarcastic swan song. A chorus of voices that come too late - and perhaps need to be heard for that very reason.
Spoiler: No one is saved. But perhaps we understand each other a little better. Just before it's all over.
