A strange feeling leads Maud - who has just been awarded the Pianist of the Year prize - to return home earlier than originally planned. To her horror, she finds her husband Julien - an experienced psychoanalyst - alive, but with a rope around his neck in a clear suicide pose. After the initial shock, Maud realises that there isn't even a farewell letter! In the sleepless night that follows, the couple struggles with their relationship and the meaning and nonsense of life. In passionate verbal battles, exaggerated expectations are exposed as childish, ruthless reckonings are served up and intimate wishes are finally expressed.
An entertaining and at the same time complex chamber play for all people who have struggled for a relationship.

The Farewell Letter

Volkstheater Rostock - Kleine Komödie Warnemünde

Since theater critic Mortimer Brewster fell in love with the pastor's daughter Elaine, he has been visiting his quirky aunts Abby and Martha every day. Conveniently, Elaine lives right next door. On the evening of the engagement, of all days, Mortimer discovers a corpse in the window chest of the popular ladies. It can only have been Teddy! Mortimer's crazy brother thinks he is President Theodore Roosevelt and is busily digging the Panama Canal in the basement of the house. But it gets even worse: the dear aunts know about the unknown dead man! When Mortimer's brother Jonathan, who was believed to be dead, turns up with his dubious friend Dr. Einstein, things get really complicated. And incredibly funny.
