Der Sturz der Kometen und der Kosmonauten (DSE)

In the organizer's words:

It begins like a classic road movie. Two people escape their everyday lives and set off together. By car. To Moscow.

He left the USSR for France as a young student shortly before the fall of communism. But he never really arrived. She lives in Berlin and feels a stranger in her own life. Two lonely and unstable people who know each other well: Father and daughter. The upheavals of the 1990s, which still have an impact today, have left their mark on their biographies. But their stories are too different, their estrangement too great for them to really understand each other.

"You wanted freedom - here you have your freedom." Marina Skalova's play revolves around the question of how a life is possible in which everything seems to be possible, but nothing is important enough to provide stability.

"Tragedy and comedy are often close together when the dialogues reflect the themes of exile and migration and their effects." Manfred Ofer in Die Rheinpfalz

"Maier plays the daughter in a superficially jovial and detached manner, but under a thin membrane you can also sense a permanent, pulsating tension. Hecht's father is sober, with a disillusioned gravity of mood, but with melancholic, rapturous touches." Martin Vögele on the "worth seeing" production in the Mannheimer Morgen

Note: Smoking and stroboscopic flashes of light are used during the performance.
