2024 Theater an der Ruhr
Quick Info
In "Dark Black", Iona Daniel describes an infinite number of darknesses. Not only does the darkness itself come up here and vent its frustration about the fact that people, instead of admiring the darkness, only ever find the light shining in it beautiful. We also get tips on how best to capture darkness. In an idiosyncratically poetic and fantastic language that possesses a bizarre wit, the author conjures up all kinds of darknesses, so that in the end one may never again use the word "darkness" without naming it more precisely. A text that illuminates the darkness and creates its own poetic world in the process. Theresia Walser
