MONTE ROSA

Tickets available HERE

you also feel so little - yes, fortunately
 
The glaciers have melted, a thick haze smoulders in the valleys - only the snow-covered peak of Monte Rosa glistens promisingly in the morning sun. The mountain calls and three nameless climbers answer. Well stretched and greedy for clean mountain air, these Sisyphean figures chase after the next summit with merciless optimism. Encounters remain coincidental, faces are quickly forgotten. Along the edge of the abyss, there are laws and manners all of their own; the next rockfall is bound to come, whoever looks back has lost. All hail the mountain!
 
Austrian playwright Teresa Dopler releases three driven people into an absurdly comical end-time scenario. With piercing precision, she observes the strange interactions of a species that was once human. Together with his team, Hamburg directing graduate Fabian Thon embarks on a search for truthful encounters - for tenderness in a world of cold functionality.
