He disappeared? Where did he go?" – "I have no idea. He was simply gone." – "Maybe he'd finished work for the day."

I once knew a guy named Sterni who was a doorman at a state-subsidized dive bar. "What really matters," he always said, "is overcoming gravity." But the time of utopias was over, and I was on my way to a meeting with the boss, full of anticipation. Then Sterni, smiling happily, stepped in front of me and said, "Despite deadly dangers, I overcame all the obstacles that barred my access to hidden phenomena. I discovered the living cell, found the building block of the elements, and now I'm going to venture into space. What do you say, want to come along?" And then he showed me his rocket. As an enlightened European, I could see immediately, of course, that the thing would never fly, but he just said, "Now let's give that engine some gas," opened two beers, and off we went. Unfortunately, we then had a falling out at an intergalactic convenience store over the question of why all bodies fall at the same rate regardless of their mass, and I haven't seen him since.

"Time is out of joint!"


When Hamlet returns to the Danish court, the old order has been shattered. Hamlet's father, the King of Denmark, has been murdered by his own brother. Unseen, unpunished. The murderer, Claudius, now sits on the throne himself and has married Hamlet's mother, Gertrude, the old king's widow. The young prince is determined to bring justice to his father's cause and avenge him. But what is he willing to sacrifice? What or whom must he offer? To avoid detection in his plan for revenge, Hamlet misleads the court. He dissembles, feigning madness. Increasingly, the lines between imagination and reality blur, doubt gnaws at his conscience and willpower. And while Hamlet threatens to break under the weight of his legacy, Prince Fortinbras prepares for war against Denmark.

I will love you, I will love you,
I will love you far beyond death." (Rio Reiser)

The Florida Bar was the most beautiful dive in town, and in times of hate and autocorrect, a shining refuge for all those seeking love, intoxication, and theory-fueled conversations. The most intense and insightful days and nights were those when Sugar made the Florida Bar his home. Sugar's glorious irrationality and razor-sharp intellect had always been a source of hope and joy for us, enabling us not only to endure the present but also to savor it. "And it's about love," Sugar would often say. "How am I supposed to understand you without love? How can I listen to you if there's no love? That's just a job. But I want to love you! I want to take away your fear of the future and make the present the best time of your life!" That was Sugar. But now Sugar had left without saying goodbye, and here we sat in the Florida Bar, wondering what would happen next. Was there still enough love left? Within us? And enough recklessness, intelligence, and anarchy? And why is the Florida Bar the only place of exuberance and dialectical thinking in this town? "Well," Sugar would have said, "Nobody's perfect. Not this town, not this country, and certainly not the lover. The lover doesn't want a long life, he wants the great feeling." And I think Sugar is right, because whatever the question is, the answer can only be: I will love you. Following the successful premiere of the Western Chico Zitrone in the Valley of Hope, the renowned actor and director Milan Peschel, together with the Schwerin acting ensemble, has developed a new theatrical evening brimming with love.
