Tomas Schweigen / Far A Day Cage

Urwald

  • Theatre

Since 2007, the majority of people in the world live in cities. At the same time, in Switzerland and Germany alike, the surface area of forests has grown significantly. What do these two developments have in common? The Zurich-based group around Tomas Schweigen rehearsed in Bödmerenwald, the largest virgin forest in the Alps, and continued developing the results into a play in the middle of the city. Does it take the spectator along on a trip to the origins? Or does it lead us into the future?
