"The Funeral" in Mecklenburg is now followed by "The Festival of Love" in Swabia: the Meurer quartet Charly Hübner, Devid Striesow, Luise von Finckh and Claudia Michelsen are part of the continuation of the successful improv series by Grimme Prize winner Jan Georg Schütte a little contemplative Christmas party ahead. With his flair for bizarre situational comedy, the author and director gives his magnificent ensemble of actors - this time with Oliver Wnuk, Andrea Sawatzki, Nicole Heesters and Wolf-Dietrich Sprenger as a feuding entrepreneurial clan - free rein without a fully formulated script. While the Christmas goose is roasting, a lot is burning at the East-West family association.
