DEEP TALK - Das Leben des HARTMANNMUELLER

In the organizer's words:

Love and death; parenthood, family and violence; faith, punishment and forgiveness - DEEP TALK brings the big themes to the stage. Honest, unsparing and empathetic, HARTMANNMUELLER start with their stories and origins, moving from personal to shared, universal experiences. Where will The Life of HARTMANNMUELLER become the life of us all?

One thing is certain: the past never disappears completely. What we have experienced is a part of us, inscribed in our bodies - remains tangible in words, rituals and objects. The boundaries to the present become blurred. Our own experiences make their way into the present and influence our actions today. Which imprints remain, which do we pass on - for example, when we become parents ourselves?

HARTMANNMUELLER give universal questions and themes of life a stage and create a rousing experience that stirs and resonates. The audience is invited to explore similarities in different life paths. DEEP TALK - The Life of HARTMANNMUELLER leads through intense emotional worlds, sets sensual stimuli and makes physical presence tangible. At the pulse of being human, the performance unfolds as a firework of emotions!
