"It is passivity that dulls feeling."
-Susan Sontag
Shortly before graduating from university in the big city, Ana returns to her hometown. Here, her father Fritz runs a poorly run chip shop in the middle of a housing estate with great dedication - in a manic search for the perfect chip preparation. His partner Mimi, who helps out in the snack bar, shows little understanding for this desperate search for gold, as she had hoped for a different life. The same goes for Juli, Ana's old girlfriend, who never got out.
Fabienne Dür's theater text shows a world in which paralysis and departure, comedy and crises lead the characters towards and away from each other with a great love of quirkiness. They meet under the vastness of the sky, in the narrow confines of the petty bourgeoisie, against the backdrop of waiting demolition cranes and always wrapped in the smell of hot grease.
Duration: 1 hour and 40 minutes, no intermission
A co-production with the Frankfurt University of Music and Performing Arts and the Hessian Theater Academy.
