Seid nett zu Mr. Sloane

In the organizer's words:

Play by Joe Orton / Joe Orton trilogy part 2 / aged 16 and over

A family that seems so creepy at first glance that you could laugh again. This is where young Mr. Sloane ends up in search of a place to stay - and as soon as he arrives, he becomes entangled in a web of desire, dependencies and power games. There is the lonely Kath, no longer young, but hungry for closeness, for control, for a body she can possess. Her brother Ed cultivates a staid image - but even behind his mask it flashes greedily. And her father? Half absent, half clairvoyant - and he of all people seems to suspect who Mr. Sloane really is.

But what does reality mean when desire takes over? You can walk over dead bodies - maybe. And who would take offense here? The life that blossoms in this family is too tempting, the game in which lust, violence and laughter can hardly be distinguished is too entertaining.

Our Joe Orton trilogy enters its second round with "Be nice to Mr. Sloane". This English classic of comedy literature takes us into a world between horror and humor, in which bourgeois facades crumble, abysses sparkle cheerfully and in which we, while smiling, have long since become accomplices.
