Lauscherlounge - Pride & Prejudice in Paradise

Description

Jane Austen's most famous novel becomes reality TV: A chamber play for two between dream beach, prejudices, and love entanglements. Content:
"Married in Paradise" is the thirtieth reality TV format in which Liz participates – but the first in which she will get married. Because anyone who doesn't find a life partner here in the paradisiacal villas on the beach of Thailand (and live on German TV) is out. And Liz must win the show. She needs the prize money. For Darcy, however, reality TV is a completely new world. He comes from educated cosmopolitan backgrounds and is only here because he lost a bet. Theoretically, Darcy would be a candidate for Liz. But when she overhears him mocking her "gutter hair" and her "worker's mouth," she decides to leave the show as a loser if necessary. After all, one doesn't have to commit at all costs! In this mood, she also rejects the marriage proposal of contestant Collin, although a yes would bring her victory. This impresses Darcy greatly. Yes, it actually charms him, he must admit. Whether Liz is not exactly the woman missing in his bourgeois, boring life—it's a pity she now hates him with all her heart. Or can this rudder still be turned around? Cast:

Anna Basener writes radio plays, novels, and screenplays. She worked freelance for NEON, was a business punk columnist, and sometimes also a vice-author. Her literary debut "When Grandma Still Cooked Pigeon Soup for Prostitutes" was awarded the Putlitzer Prize in 2018, and her radio play series "Die juten Sitten" shot to number 1 on the bestseller list overnight. When she gets tired of literature, she writes Western penny novels and does stand-up comedy. Live radio play:
Who closes their eyes hears a radio play – but who opens them, not only gets an insight into the radio play production but also experiences a very own, special art form on stage. The voice actors, a sound effects artist, and a sound designer let the audience participate in the creation of a radio play. About Lauscherlounge:
