theagovia theater - Die weissen Zettel

Description

«Die weissen Zettel» is a social drama about the siege of an unnamed city and its effects on what can happen to a society within a closed system through oppression from outside. Unlike José Saramago's novel «The City of the Blind», no analogous story is told, but the events are viewed from different perspectives through accompanying choral texts and monologue structures, similar to interrogations in a thriller. From comparable viewpoints, new considerations of the same incident repeatedly emerge. It is then up to the audience to adopt their own position on the incident at hand. Whose perspective is the most convincing? Which is the most humane? Which is justified or proportionate?
