Elisabeth - A Monologue about Anger and Truth, Being a Woman

Description

Here speaks Elisabeth, not "Sissi"! The Empress reveals a side that surprises: self-critical, thoughtful, angry! She looks back on the breaks in her life – marriage, childbirth duties, beauty cult, and her fight for self-determination. She also questions her own role and privileges: "Not caring about politics is a privilege," Elisabeth recognizes. Because she could travel wherever she wanted, retreat whenever she wished, and enjoy her extraordinary wealth. But in the end, her path leads to an insight that extends far beyond her time: freedom cannot be possessed alone. A woman is truly free only when all women are free. An intense evening of theater about power and helplessness, responsibility and emancipation, questions that have not lost their relevance to this day. With her captivating monologue, Mareike Fallwickl bridges the first women's movement to contemporary feminism.
