Wutschweiger

Theater der Stadt Aalen
Schauspiel (in dt. Lautsprache)

Ebeneser’s world is shrinking: since his parents no longer have a job, everything is getting smaller and smaller – the opportunities, the flat and, ultimately, his father and mother themselves. Sammy is already familiar the experience and Ebeneser can share his “because we can’t afford it” experiences with her, as well as Tic Tacs, stories and fantasies, anger and courage. And when the “because we can’t afford it” costs them the school trip they have been looking forward to, the two of them decide not to let it get them down, but to remain loud in their silence.

This multi-award-winning children’s play uses subtle humour and strong images of a great friendship to (quietly) protest against disappearance and concealment.
