“I’m only interested in what has no practical use, only interested in life in its absurd appearances,” Russian avant garde writer Daniil Charms (1905 – 1942) once confessed. He wrote many short stories centring on absurd situations and dialogues. The French writers George Courteline and Pierre Henri Cami were his precursors. The German director Andrea Breth, previously at the Holland Festival with Goethe’s Stella, chose more than thirty sketches from these three kindred writers. She has drawn them together into a performance which shows the comical as well as the deeply tragic side of life. Family relations, work, love and lust, everything is addressed with the help of ten actors tumbling about on the stage like characters from the silent movies.
