Content description

Playwright Yasmina Reza («James Brown Wore Curlers») is fascinated by court cases, and her collection of short stories summarises her observations from recent years. She laconically and pointedly observes the moments when incomprehensible deeds must be judged, conflicting statements must be found to be true or false, and often entire lives hang in the balance – and, almost in passing, captures a panorama of human existence. Resident director Nora Schlocker adapts the texts for the stage.
