À table

‘Zu Tisch’ (At the Table) Circus theatre for all generations
The new production by Circus Schatzinsel, with its multi-generational project, deals with the potential for conflict that arises when different generations come together. An extended family with all its idiosyncrasies arrives to celebrate a joint festival. This brings with it vanity, ignorance and incomprehension on the one hand, and love, security and compassion on the other. These are explored through dance, artistry and theatre, stories are told, the idiosyncrasies of individual performers become apparent, subliminal controversies are played out and the table is lavishly set. A play by 12 performers between the ages of 25 and 85 turns out to be a reflection of our society with all its warmth and coldness.
