What happens when a woman in her prime and an impulsive young man meet on the rehearsal stage? She: an aging, slightly out-of-fashion actress working as a cleaner and his former acting teacher. He: a crisp jack-of-all-trades musician and dashing, sassy multi-talent in the starting blocks of his career. Cornelia Schirmer and Delio Malär sing, dance and drink, fight an acting and musical battle about the drama of audition roles, the great love of theatre and the pitfalls of the age difference in love. The play and the lyrics sparkle and flicker erotically between the unequal partners of this amour fou. With incredibly smart songs and lyrics, the two artists oscillate between honest rock'n roll, chanson, pop and bel canto and strike a successful bow between micro-musical and chamber play.
