Singletreff

In the organizer's words:

A comedy by Dirk Laucke

Lovin is a village (almost) without women. Somewhere in the middle of nowhere. A sparsely populated spot on the face of the earth, at first glance the world seems to be in order.
and the biggest worry in the evening after work is "Do you have reception?" Andy, who has to do community service in the village for possession of cannabis, can't get a loan from the bank to cover his lost wages because he's not married or partnered. Clever as he is, he has the brilliant idea of organizing a flirt party in the village to get money. The whole village is in a state of emergency and on fire in the truest sense of the word. There hasn't been this much hustle and bustle for a long time and as Lovin
is made up of 99% men, they help each other out, especially when it comes to fashion and flirting. The
otherwise rather comfortable and chilled society gets into the swing of things and the anticipation of this special event in the local annual calendar grows. So it's a good thing that the old beer benches haven't been scrapped ...

Paule (the only woman in the village), Wolf and Mario - the Bunk family for short - try to get even the most hardened dance haters interested in their favorite sport, line dancing.
line dancing. There are heated discussions not only about step combinations, but above all about music.
The dust is blown off old record and CD crates, cuddly rock medleys are remembered and taste buds are strained. But above all, there are elementary questions
questions: When do I chat up a desirable person and, above all, how? What should you actually do with unusual tastes?
And what is the real relationship between the sexes when flirting in the evening? And where is Rammeln actually located?
The whole of Lovin seems to be in love with the idea of a singles meeting. Can it work? And then she really appears - the woman.

Author Dirk Laucke and director Lars-Ole Walburg not only approach the mundane love affairs of lonely hearts in their second joint commission for the Schauspiel am Staatstheater Kassel, following the world premiere of Auf Wache in the 2020/21 season. Rather, with this black-humored comedy, they pose the question of how we want to deal with each other in today's society and whether we are capable of finding a language for exchange that, above all, all sides understand and that takes into account the desired protection of minorities.
