Matthias Egersdörfer - langsam

Description

In the morning, it sometimes starts with the sky suddenly crashing down on you without warning. The woman has slept too little or too much. She talks non-stop. You are buried under an avalanche of words. You haven't even had a sip of coffee yet. You're glad that gravity works and you were just about to count your fingers. The worst part of the situation is the high speed at which the words are spoken. The frantic running of people on the streets, the tractors rushing over the fields, the high velocity at which news and disasters flash and thunder. It's been a few years since Egers worked in a kitchen. The head chef told him three hundred times in a short period to hurry up. Egers tried. But it didn't go faster. Egers is slow. He cuts onions slowly, thinks slowly, and usually doesn't speak very quickly. In this slowness, he also wrote the new program. It took a very long time. Letter by letter, word by word. Sentence by sentence. With a sluggish force, the cabaret artist fights against the speed of the world. The whole evening celebrates slowness, and therefore the stories are not performed at an increased tempo. But as an audience, you don't have to worry about getting tired because of the slow pace. Because it might happen that Egers gets angry once. He often gets upset about everything and nothing. And then you'll wake up again. https://www. egers. de/ Photo: Stephan Minx
