What makes a guest a guest and a stranger a stranger? Which rituals determine a friendship. And what mythical aspects determined sacred laws of hospitality. The choreography revolves around these questions. For the rights of strangers precede the rights of guests. The guest who was driven away, banished, returns as a frightening stranger.

// Press reviews

"A wealth of expression, virtuosity, narrating what is nearly impossible to narrate, the reproduction of recurring images and obsessions casts a spell on the audience." (Bonner Rundschau)
