DAS EXPERIMENT
In the organizer's words:
By Mario Giordano. In an adaptation by Viola Neumann
"Article 1: Human dignity is inviolable. To respect and protect it is the duty of all state authority."
This is the first law that is broken in this play.
Nine volunteers take part in a psychological study. They are randomly divided into prisoners and guards. Some are given unlimited power - the others lose their freedom completely. What begins as a playful experiment develops into a merciless reality. A power game takes its course - oppressive, radical and disturbingly topical.
How quickly do empathy, responsibility and humanity disappear when structures topple?
