Im Blut The carnival of life from the perspective of true Viennese
In the blood resides a small river god, he is the Lord of Lust.
He swims around in your blood, and once a day he pays a visit to your heart.
He likes it there, for him, it’s like being in a bathtub, and when he
pulls the plug, your blood shoots through your veins in a single torrent.
In such moments one can read in this torrent the wishes of the small river god.
What, you can’t read your blood?!
Alas, how happy you would be if you fulfilled his wishes.
An evening with scenes and songs about existences out there trying to catch their wishes, but who don’t remember that their nets are already a bit holey.
The merciless love goddess Luna, who knows exactly how to catch and destroy us. Frogs that drag us into their problems when they are left beyond help. Our innermost self, which conspires against us because we do not treat it right, and last but not least the devil, who fools us with his cunning contracts – all of them make an appearance. Where? In the blood. This is their retreat, for reason does not allow them to disturb our day-to-day life.
