In the organizer's words:

A theater performance about student fraternities and sororities in Heidelberg

The Institute for Control and Excess, founded at the Heidelberg Theatre and Orchestra, set out to research the fraternity system in Heidelberg for the development of the play: Among other things, it spoke to fraternity students, activists and dropouts - and is even said to have been a guest at fraternity houses.

Driven by the attempt to penetrate the opaque fabric of fraternities, the result is an immersive evening of theater about close friendship and toxic masculinity, about cherished rituals and badly aged conventions, about the promotion of young talent and dangerous rope teams, about liberal fraternity brothers and revisionist tendencies, about honour, fencing and drinking and about degrading violence.

An evening that unites.
