Men, women and other disasters
“Women are like sharks. Give them an inch, and they’ll take a mile,” he says. She has more to complain about when it comes to the average man than she does about Deutsche Bahn. Men and women just don’t mix. The fact that they keep trying anyway is what spices up life and provides the content for the KIECK Theater’s program.
Drawing on texts by various poets, actress Cornelia Thiele embarks on playful forays where she eavesdrops on Lottchen and her lovers, draws comparisons between men, kisses frogs, says “hello” to the handsome Mr. Death, and narrowly escapes more than one disaster in the process. Thomas Kieck, like so many men, barely gets a word in edgewise, but is indispensable as her accompanist on the guitar. And in their interplay, you see it once again: just how beautifully and harmoniously men and women can complement each other—sometimes even without any disasters.
Under the name KIECK-Theater, Cornelia Thiele and Thomas Kieck have been presenting literary-musical programs since 1991 that combine acting, pantomime, and music. With their mix of funny, dramatic, and thought-provoking little performances, they make audiences from Basel to Rostock and from Bautzen to Essen laugh, dream, smile, and be moved.
