Bin nebenan

Twelve episodes about contemporaries and their attempts at furnishing. Mint and light blue against a threatening outside, comfort rituals against panic attacks, the perfectly cleaned kitchen as a pseudo-sacred space. A text marathon about shaky foundations of life and interiors in need of renovation. Emotional pipe bursts are pre-programmed. Twelve tragicomic monologues by playwright and director Ingrid Lausund about quirky, lonely, and insecure contemporaries who fight survival battles with themselves and their immediate surroundings in their small parallel universes. Ingrid Lausund is among the most performed contemporary female playwrights with her comedies. The monologues collected in this volume about the feeling of being unhomed in modern times read like short stories while simultaneously demanding to be on stage.
