Hart auf Hart - Wollen Sie wippen? - Satirisches Schauspiel

Hard on Hard—Want to See-Saw?
Satirical Play

Set design? Minimalist: a woman and a man at a table on height-adjustable chairs. Dialogue? Sophisticated. The characters are in place; the delightfully eloquent performance can begin. Hart auf Hart has created a refined play with subtle humor that delves into major social issues as deeply as it is enjoyable—and entirely without moralizing. “Elisabeth Hart and Rhaban
Straumann demonstrate in 80 minutes just how much can be packed into a performance with minimal resources,” emphasizes Roland Mahr, artistic director of the Renitenztheater Stuttgart.
Or…
A satirical play with a table, written by and starring the actors Elisabeth Hart and Rhaban Straumann (Hart auf Hart). They play four characters—rapidly, with gusto, and grippingly—who have quite a bit to settle between them. A humorous, compelling new play about an encounter. She’s German, he’s Swiss—twice over. Even banalities take on depth in their conversation. Linguistically, it’s a feast; the story is multi-layered, and the actors’ enthusiasm is contagious. Great cinema in your head.

Great cinema in your mind, as gripping as a good jazz number.

“Do You Want to See-Saw?” is the perfect cabaret mix! The recipe? A top-notch
acting duo, a simple table, a generous helping of witty verbal acrobatics, a pinch of
poetry, and more than a little situational comedy. The result? A loving
Switzerland by “Hart auf Hart”—a cabaret treat.

P.S.
At the end of August 2024, we had the co-founder of the Blinde Kuh Zurich in the audience, and he said it would work very well there, too. So if the question were to arise as to whether it would work for the visually impaired or as a radio play, we could say quite clearly: yes.
