COURAGE
David Brandstätter descends from the sky - or rather from the ceiling - and lands on stage. He is wearing a mask, a shadow mask, reminiscent of Mickey Mouse, symbol of a troubled capitalism. He is accompanied by a ladder that folds and unfolds, like a path of life - sometimes challenging, sometimes supporting.
And with CouRage and sometimes help from the audience, he experiments, tries, finds and questions.
The music, born from the sound of the ladder and composed by David Brandstätter, creates and fosters collective energy and imagination.
