What do you do when everything around you is mutating?
When you don't understand any of this?
Are you afraid? And if so, what do you do about it? Do you look away? Do you adapt?
Do you intervene or do you take sides, or even flee?
How do you live (together) between love, brutality, reason, stupidity, ethics and egoism?
Driven by envy and sensing power, hatred is unleashed.
DOIt's staggering towards the end?
Rag Oi Oi - NEVER AGAIN!
It is a play about love, reason and ethics on the one hand and exclusion, stupidity, selfishness, violence and powerlessness on the other.
In his critical first play "Oi" (published by Merlin Verlag in 1995), author John von Düffel describes social upheavals that could not be more topical. Threats to liberal, enlightened humanist values. The attack on the basic democratic order, through the attack on individual and thus societal freedoms.
