A grotesque vaudeville with texts by Daniil Charms
Saturday, 05/09/2026 19:00 HfMT Campus Barmbek, Große Bühne

"I'm only interested in 'nonsense'; only that which has no practical meaning. Heroism, pathos, fate, morality, hygienic purity, morality and gambling are words and feelings I hate."

(Daniil Charms, 1905-1942)

Clownish existentialism, nonsense, Kafkaesque burlesques and bitter seriousness: in the texts of the avant-gardist Charms, Dada and black humor blur with the real threat to life in the Stalin era. An informer or the cops lurk behind every door. Again and again, characters are arrested, the most trivial conflicts escalate into orgies of violence or fizzle out into the absurd.

With drama students from the Theaterakademie, actress and director Irina Sulaver explores the coagulated reality of an unreliable, alogical world in which we are still poking around for orientation today.
