In the organizer's words:

Daniel Breitfelder as Hitler's secretary, who witnessed the last days of the war in the Führerbunker - she speaks unsparingly about repression, responsibility and guilt and does not accept the excuse that she was young at the time. After all, Sophie Scholl was too.

The evening involves young people who talk about what resistance means to them today. A theater project against forgetting and a reminder not to repeat the mistakes of the past.

At the last Sommerblut Festival, the production office Petra P. wowed audiences with Queere Revolution (nominated for the Cologne Theater Prize 2024, among others). Now, at a time when right-wing extremism is gaining strength, it is setting an example with a gripping monologue - exactly 80 years after the end of the Second World War. The mantra "Wehret den Anfängen!", which has often been dismissed as a cliché, hovers over the intense performance the whole time.

The queer collective Produktionsbüro Petra P. consists of Daniel Breitfelder, Johannes Brüssau and Sebastian Kreyer. With their unmistakable aesthetic, they read a wide variety of que(e)r material.
