Markus&Markus Theater­kollekiv »Titanic II«

Every successful blockbuster needs a second part to sink the first. This can only mean one thing for the Markus&Markus theater collective: After the success of the US feature film "Titanic", "Titanic II" must take to the stage! The sequel should start where the movie left off: At the bottom of the sea. So it needs sand, lots of sand.

The search for it leads the collective to a concrete factory, where they win tickets at poker for a trip to a place where sand is mined like there's no tomorrow. The consequences of this overexploitation are tangible. Every year, mankind consumes twice as much sand as the world's rivers supply. Created over thousands of years, sand is irreversibly bound into concrete in 90 minutes - that is as long as the condensed narrative of this theater production lasts.

"Titanic II" is a collision course, a melodrama, a telegram from a sinking ship.
