In this wild comedy, everything that can go wrong on stage goes wrong - and that is a huge theatrical treat. "The Play That Goes Wrong" is not just the subtitle of this fast-paced comedy, but also the program: Actors who only know their lines inadequately, stage elements that fall down and a wild mix-up of props are an integral part of this performance, in which the murderer of the master of Haversham Castle is actually to be hunted down.

Murder at Haversham Castle: The Play That Goes Wrong

Hessisches Staatstheater Wiesbaden

"My mother struggled with poverty and male violence her whole life." Édouard Louis tells a vivid story about his mother Monique Bellegueule, who grew up in precarious circumstances without any vocational training and was trapped in marriages with violent and alcoholic men. He talks about his wish to have had a different mother as a child and the great happiness of seeing her today as a liberated, happy woman.

The Freedom of a Woman: based on the book by Édouard Louis

A father is looking for his rejected son. In a magician's cave, his life is revealed to him as a game within a game. There, people love, kill, die and, again and again, are deceived. The prodigal son's changeable life becomes an illusionary game of identities, with a surprising twist at the end.
