Ensemble ARTIG // AMPHITRYON

In the organizer's words:

What do gods do when they're bored? They slip into the shape of humans, for example, to cause chaos as their lookalikes. A dazzling pastime! Mercury and Jupiter have chosen the general Amphitryon and his servant Sosias for this game of confusion and put on a perfect show. The doppelgangers are almost indistinguishable from the original. Which leads from Molière's comedy "Amphitryon" straight into our reality. After all, technological progress allows us to create digital imitations and media avatars that appear ever more realistic. Are avatars possibly the better versions of ourselves? Following Molière, the ARTIG ensemble explores the question of what actually makes a person unique. After HAMLET, the players once again devote themselves to a classic of the world stage. And its significance for the here and now.
