2024 Theater an der Ruhr
Quick Info
One of them is finally fed up with always submitting to her friend's fantasy domination on the playground. Another has to deal with the fact that his friend not only has a room to himself, but also has a smoking volcano on the cupboard. Another one doesn't want to go to a retirement home to watch his great-grandfather die. In shortcut-like scenes, Freyer shows us a round dance of characters who wrestle with themselves and others, who circumnavigate everyday abysses and ignite a comforting comedy in the process. At a time when reality seems to have long since eclipsed fictional dystopias, Freyer's characters are downright encouraging. Theresia Walser
