Im Hotel Zur Grünen Nelke

In the organizer's words:

A hotel that is short of guests tries to fill its beds with a competition and thus appear attractive to those willing to pay. A wide variety of people follow the winner's call to the Grüne Nelke, make themselves at home in the hotel and make the hotel staff break out in a sweat. Even the registration for the rooms causes a lot of confusion, as not all guests match the photo on their ID card or even decide for themselves how their identity should be established.

The homeless person meets a glittering drag queen, two old friends who now lead very different lives find each other again and the curious guest with the camera keeps making connections by taking photos of special moments.

While the guests get to know each other in the hotel, they also give the audience an insight into their backgrounds, unfolding their personalities through music and show interludes and thus bringing the Hotel zur Grünen Nelke tolife.The songs offer a musical drop between schmaltz and 70's rock, they inspire with a refreshing contrast and remind us that it is worth combining the unusual. The piece is about expectations that can be misleading: Tradition meets self-determination, glamor meets comforting weirdness and the surprising breaks fixed thought patterns.The whole thing is carried by a queer-coded undertone that guides the timbre of the hotel through the evening, turning it into a safe space.
