Description
Sarah und Ralf haben Edith und Bastian zum Abendessen eingeladen. Essbares haben die beiden aber nicht im Haus. Egal, es gibt ja Lieferservice. Den Gastgebern geht es ohnehin nicht ums Essen, sondern darum, sich köstlich zu amüsieren, sehr gerne auf Kosten der Gäste. Mit der Behauptung, einen Mord begangen und die Leiche noch in der Wohnung zu haben, lösen die Gastgeber nach einer ersten Irritation bei ihren Gästen Angst und Schrecken aus. Je später der Abend, desto größer der Horror. Zu dumm, dass Sarah und Ralf keine Ahnung hatten, welche Kräfte und Abgründe in Edith schlummern, denn zu später Stunde eskaliert die Situation.
Description
*A delightfully morbid black comedy with a nod to Hitchcock's Rope. * Ralf and Sarah are bored. They decide to invite a couple of friends round for drinks and pizza. To spice things up Ralf pretends there's a dead body in their trunk - the dead body of one of their work colleagues. While they are waiting for the pizza, they play party games and discuss films, but nothing can cover up the tense atmosphere between the two couples. And maybe Ralf is not pretending after all... David Gieselmann's play Mr Kolpert, in this English translation by David Tushingham, was premiered at the Royal Court Theatre, London, in 2000, in a production directed by Richard Wilson.
