schlammland gewalt

In the organizer's words:

"SCHLAMMLAND GEWALT" by Ferdinand Schmalz

Solo performance by movingtheatre as part of the festival "Verwandlungen" - 3 solos

Extreme weather events threaten the existence of a celebrating village. However, the quirky cast of characters played by Thomas Hupfer in the beer-soaked community remain entangled in hierarchies, hostilities, instincts and relationships ... right up to the macabre climax. The play by Bachmann Prize winner Schmalz paints a multi-layered picture of social coexistence: bizarre, brutal and desperately funny. The production was nominated for the Cologne Theater Prize 2022.

"Thomas Hupfer plays a furious solo .... The text develops its wonderful power of language in the incredibly physical play." (Norbert Raffelsiefen, Kölner Stadt-Anzeiger)

"Macabre to the core.... Absolutely worth seeing." (Jörg Klemenz, Kölnische Rundschau)

"A powerful, entertaining performance that conjures up an entire world in just 70 minutes and lets it perish." (kritik-gestalten)
