About this event

After the success of I am Fassbinder, author and director Falk Richter involves choreographer Nir de Volff, dramaturg Nils Haarmann and a troop of eight young actors, dancers and performers from different European countries.
Together, they will question the notion of identity. The starting point will be the performers’ stories, passions and personal biographies. French, English and other languages will be spoken on stage. Individually and collectively, they will give substance to a complex, intentionally open spectre, aiming to address the question of what identity and community might mean in Europe today.
