PUTSCH (Premiere B)

Klara is more than just funny - she is sharp-tongued, clever and dangerous. When a single slip-up is enough to get her successful TV show canceled, her career seems to be over. But Klara doesn't think about giving up - she fights back. With charm, anger and a merciless instinct for impact, she sparks a movement that shakes the entire system. What begins as a personal reckoning grows into a political avalanche. The boundaries between satire and seriousness, activism and show, left and right, media power and manipulation become increasingly blurred. In an increasingly shrill exchange of blows, ideals and institutions alike begin to totter.

Between humor and anger, the play feels its way through the media thicket of our present - and hits the political nerve center.

Following their acclaimed satire "Kardinalfehler", the writing team Beaton and Jacobs (KALTER WEISSER MANN, EXTRAWURST) once again deliver a sharp-tongued, fast-paced comedy that shows that democracy is not just a form of government: Democracy is not just a form of government, but a daily feat of strength. PUTSCH was commissioned by Theater Trier. The WBT is presenting the second performance in a revised version.
