«Höhere Gewalt» by Maria Ursprung

Description

Risks without side effects? Insurances promise us a worry-free future. At the same time, they exploit the dangers lurking in homes and the environment by unsettling customers with forecasts that only sometimes prove true, but can have far-reaching consequences. Based on research around Swiss insurance companies, Theater Marie has developed an evening of theater whose characters confidently confront the eerie realization that the unexpected can lurk around every corner and behind every phone call. But what exactly are insurances? An act of solidarity or an attempt to buy oneself out of life's dangers? Theater Marie presents a play with wit and relevance on an unlikely topic: planning for the unexpected. Participants and additional information: with Manuel Bürgin, Newa Grawit, Vincent Glanzmann
