Information
“Men and women just don’t go together…” – and yet they have to get along every day. When the breakfast egg takes too long to boil in the morning and opinions differ on how to spend the evening, things become critical. This is exactly what Loriot summed up in his legendary Scenes from a Marriage, published in 1983. His flair for interpersonal relationships and the comedy of everyday communication show Loriot to be an astute connoisseur of all too human comedies. …
In homage to the humorous grandmaster, two stage and film greats, Aglaia Szyszkowitz and Friedrich von Thun, come together to breathe life and laughter into these scenes. Together and against each other, they struggle with the stumbling blocks that everyday life throws in their way and, of course, with the insurmountable pitfalls of a couple’s relationship. Because what did Loriot say? “A happy marriage is one in which she is a little blind and he is a little deaf.”
