Don Juan! You are the most wondrous of all children who have seen the light of this world. Your world is acting and everything you touch changes into a magic forest of endless possibilities. Your name is a mask and theatre runs through your veins. – It takes only a moment for you to seduce someone.
The study process grew out of Don Juan’s motto, The world is acting – which means, exploring different styles of acting, different genres and different aspects of the question what theatre is in its essence. The acting of the acting became so serious that it caused a vertiginous disappearance into the mesmerising yet painful embrace. This was our wish. To dare to get lost. – All roads lead anyway to … Hell?
