This Magic Moment oder also Sie sehn schon echt fett aus in dem Kleid nehmen Sie doch lieber das andere

Mousonturm Saal

Performance/Theater

This Magic Moment ventures onto the thin ice of human strategies for couple formation and the spectacular exaggeration of the feelings raised in the process. In spite of the undeniable charm that they emit, risks and side effects abound. There is no other communicative terrain in humanity so highly determined by and contaminated with visual, spatial, gestural and above all linguistic performances, which rush ahead or chase after every expression so matter how personal. For her world premiere Frankfurt-based director Susanne Zaun dissects the collective yearning for the pathos of the moment. Together with her ensemble, she explores the staging of allegedly natural, supposedly romantic feelings. Due to their extremely transitory nature, they bring up fundamental issues of human existence: what strategies for the intensification and exaggeration of our feelings do we have at our disposal? And who profits from them? Since ultimately everything is about nothing less than the perfect moment!
