After an embarrassing night the noble notary Dr. Falke is only being refered to as Dr. Fledermaus, as he has strolled around the streets completely drunken and dressed as a bat. Mr. von Eisenstein could have prevented it, but instead he had let the notary make a fool of himself. Dr. Falke's "revenge of the bat" on Eisenstein is the driving force of Johann Strauss' famous operetta.

Show Business
Catherine Guerin
In an exciting combination of movement, text and sound, this piece takes us to the very origin of where any show really starts: the drawing board a.k.a. our home office and process of filling in application forms.
Mannheimer Morgen: “Begleitet von Guerin's Stimme, die den Begriff “Show Business” auseinander nimmt und kunstvoll in Wortspielen wie 'Home Office' bis hin zum 'Burn Out' verschiebt, legt der ausgefeilte Tanz dazu die körperlichen Verhältnisse offen.”

Winterschlaf
Kirill Berezovski | Amelia Eisen | Mike Planz
Our society's perception of time has changed drastically within the last decade: what seems to matter the most is speed and efficiency. The gap between the people who can keep up and those who don't is constantly growing bigger. "Winterschlaf" shows three people, each in their own time zone. What starts as disconnected slowly intertwines and builds up to a sense of unity, a sense of being one.
One time - keep time - keep one.
