Manhattan, 1940s

Obsessed with their seemingly intellectual superiority, Brandon and Philipp, two young aspiring students from Manhattan's upper class, strangle their fellow student David and hide him in a trunk.

The subsequent party is meant to be the crowning climax of their supposedly perfect crime. But as the murder victim's loved ones unknowingly gather around the same trunk, their concern grows for the missing David. His unknown whereabouts and some contradictory coincidences also attract the attention of Francis Cadell. The philosopher and former teacher of the students begins to suspect that the party is more than just an ordinary gathering of old acquaintances…

A dramatic chamber play, based on a true story, that shakes moral customs and values, transcends the theoretical boundaries of philosophy and psychology, and tears open human abysses.

But as those few days turn into eight weeks, not only Vanessa's friend, but increasingly Vanessa herself finds the unwanted visitors getting on her nerves. They constantly criticise Vanessa and her lifestyle, allow pesky salespeople and her hated neighbour to come and go in her house, and to cap it all, they're also planning to blow up her kitchen.

Political drama by Talia Klenk

Changed dates: Mon. 18th, Tue. 19th, Thu. 21st and Fri. 22nd January 2027, each at 20:00 (instead of October 2026)

The dystopian political drama follows the non-binary protagonist Seona through an increasingly radicalising society. Between personal refuges, public threat and moments of collective hope, an arresting portrait of queer identity emerges in times of societal regression.

Between the Walls by Talia Klenk poses the question of how much self-determination people are allowed to have before society begins to take it away from them again. The story unfolds over several years and revolves around fear, love, resistance – and the longing to be allowed to exist in peace.
