Egal

Description

Behind the facade of an enlightened partnership, Marius von Mayenburg opens fine cracks in the self-understanding of the present. A clever, profound comedy about equality, power, and comedy. Simone is a successful, busy businesswoman. She brings her husband a gift from a business trip, who takes care of the household and children during her absence. Erik hesitates to open the package. What does it mean? What if he came back from a trip and Simone took care of family life? Does it not matter who takes which role in their relationship? And is it even possible to meet one's own demands for love and living together without becoming a hopelessly comical figure? "Egal" does not necessarily mean "indifferent." "Equal" is the word in French, and that is exactly what the author Marius von Mayenburg negotiates as a profound analysis of misguided social conventions. A psychologically profound and wildly comic play about privileged and supposedly equal couples whose world seems fine from the outside – and who take themselves so seriously that it is laughable. Outstandingly cast with Caroline Peters and Michael Wächter.
