Hagen Rether - "Liebe - aktualisierte Fassung!" | Berlin

In great detail, Hagen Rether links the current with the forgotten, the close with the distant, questions, disputes, doubts. He thoroughly shakes up the central tenets of Western “civilization” and exposes so-called constraints to laughter as collective fictions. With surprising comparisons, he seduces the audience to change their perspective - to take a different look at the world, into the future, into the mirror, and even face uncomfortable truths. And he calls for us to free ourselves from our often instrumentalized fear and anger.

Rether's LOVE is tragic, funny, painful, contagious: The constantly mutating program with the same title always causes lasting dissatisfaction with simple explanations and encourages us to think and act for ourselves.

For up to three and a half hours, the cabaret artist passionately pleads for enlightenment and compassion, against double standards and consumerist sausageiness: change is possible – if we want.
