Hannah & Simone, een ochtend in New York - Linssen & Provily

Overig

After the success of the five-star showArthur & Friedrich,a night in Bayreuth, the third show in the philosophy series of theater duo Linssen & Provily follows. In Hannah & Simone, a morning in New York we ask ourselves and them the question: what should we do? Are we really as powerless as we sometimes feel in this violent world, or are we just as responsible? What on earth is good?

In the hope of answers, we, one a principled activist and the other a safe doubter, consult the two thinkers Arendt and Weil. They have never met each other. Until now. Two women, philosophers. Both Jewish, both fled to the safety of America. Both terrified of groups. And both addicted to cigarettes. But then it is war. And shouldn't a person also enjoy it?
Agree: you have to do something. But what? And what if, after doing so much, you notice that nothing changes? Can you give up then?

Hannah & Simone, a morning in New York is a passionate conversation about ultimate commitment. About shouting, writing and shrugging your shoulders. About friendship and guilt. In reality and on stage.
