SCHALKTHEATER

Description

After humans came the immortals – the Niemalstoten. They live in a society that promises infinite health. Everyone must follow tightly scheduled routines and dedicate themselves to the strictly curated entertainment program. Those who break out of their treatments risk everything, as they suddenly have time. In the cyberfantasy performance Neusferatu by the Junge Schalktheater, co-directed by Michel Blaser and Benjamin Burger, the ensemble follows the call of eternal life. In today's times, where the super-rich work on overcoming death and become modern vampires, the group asks questions about how fairly life is distributed in society and what kind of world immortality would lead to.
