Death comes when death is over. — Disclaimer: Bei allen Toden handelt es sich um Bühnentode. Im Theater stirbt man nämlich nicht.

The deathbeds have been opened. Stavrogin and Ludovika are laid out in a mortuary. Two women speculate about the cause of the couple’s death:

“They passed away from each other”.
“I think it was quite different”.

Did they beat each other to death? Strangled? Does it even matter? The play Surviving the Dead unfolds in a retrospective of their story: They step on each other’s toes at the Apple Blossom Festival and fall in love. Stavrogin would like to be a hero and sets out to find the inner war. But he is not alone on the periphery of the war. He encounters other souls who seem to be more individual than he is. Ludovika stays behind, puts up posters on walls and realizes: “It’s not Catholicism, but it’s not the men either!”.

Stavrogin is a choir; a loud polyphony that goes out to find answers and returns without having become any wiser. For it is not the constant questioning, but the pondering that causes a real headache.

Even if dying in death survival does not require actual death, it can be terribly exhausting to pretend to be dead.

A production of the Otto Falckenberg School in cooperation with the Münchner Kammerspiele.
Supported by the Richard Stury Foundation.
