Die Komödie

Death is never nice. But it could be worse than falling asleep peacefully at the age of 94: for example, being at a funeral service that gets completely out of hand. Gernot Steinfels, patriarch of an old German SME, has passed away and his designated successor Horst Bohne (60) is organizing the funeral for the company. However, the text on the ribbon causes a great deal of irritation: "In deep mourning. Your employees". The new "old white man" at the top quickly has not only his head of marketing, the head of social media and his secretary against him, but also the very self-confident intern. In front of the theater audience as an assembled congregation of mourners, the company's management ultimately tears itself apart more and more in this highly pointed play. And not even the desperate priest can calm the waters.

With a keen eye and lusty dedication, this twisty comedy by Dietmar Jacobs and Moritz Netenjakob (including EXTRAWURST) depicts the abysses, pitfalls and rhetorical tricks of the current discussion about social norms of behavior and their human-all-too-human causes, but also awakens a longing for attentive and respectful interaction with one another. Bury everything you ever thought about the generation gap! When boomers and Gen Z clash in this sad-society satire, you won't know whether you're male or female with laughter. In lieu of flowers or wreaths, generous donations of applause are requested.

With Martin Molitor, Barbara Bach, Lore Richter, Lukas Dittmer, Marianna McAven, Wolff von Lindenau; Director: Laura Remmler
