Das große Fragen

A fantastic-philosophical theater excursion

It takes Domi, Fiona, Mikki and Theresa a while to realize that the wondrous place they have landed in must be a brain. New questions from the children keep popping up in it: What color is the void? Why are there creatures that have no fur but must wear clothes? Why am I me and not someone else? What do you do with questions to which there are no answers or an infinite number of answers? Using the analog machines they find in the brain, the four travel through stories, feelings, memories and thoughts. Some answers come immediately, others you have to search for a long time, still others make the whole world shake. Between text, image, sound and performance, the boundaries between knowing and not knowing, belief and truth, feeling and thinking shift.

For "Das große Fragen", questions that children have for the world were explored together with 7- to 13-year-olds - real-life and pragmatic questions that seem very small at first glance, but also ones that we usually prefer to avoid because they call everything into question. The result is an exciting philosophical play with analog means for everyone between the ages of 7 and 107.
