RIESEN*ZWERGE

stage performance, 2017

In an episodic and partly bizarre way, five growing boys and three adults are looking at the world of today from their own point of view. Excesses of everyday life which is overstimulated by media versus „real life“. This kind of life needs the in-between and the art of transformation. Boys wear beards, because they wanna be like men. Grown ups acting like clowns, because they wanna play like children again. They will dance, rap and make fun of everything what is actually going on in this world. No attention to global players, politicians, and wannabes. And right inside there is once own small Universe: you „like“ what you love or you become the next famous viral videostar.
