ABOUT THE SHOW
WOLFRAM IS COMING OVER, AND ASTRID DOESN'T KNOW WHY.
Astrid, a teacher, lives with Klara, her considerably younger partner—and also her former student. When Wolfram, the school’s headmaster, drops by for a visit, he brings with him uncomfortable accusations, and the search for truth erupts into a wicked game of power and desire. In this psychological thriller with no easy answers, internationally-lauded playwright Marius von Mayenburg touches the nerve between past and present, professional and private, truth and lie.
