Since we never managed to meet up for coffee in person, we decided to get so close on stage that we could even cross paths. We'll mostly sit down the whole time. A firework of punchlines—whenever we can think of any. Nostalgic memories—whenever we can think of any. Philosophical thoughts—when we can think of any. And if we can't think of anything, we'll just tell you what comes to mind... An evening from the Globe Vienna.

A thrilling weekend in the countryside. The wife is going to her mother's, and it's her lover's birthday. What could be better for a man in the midst of a midlife crisis? A catering service has been booked to give his lover a wonderful evening. His long-time friend has been invited as an alibi, in case anything goes wrong... Admittedly, the fact that this adultery is taking place in their shared weekend home is pretty nasty, but what's even nastier is that the long-time friend of the family is the wife's secret lover. Two hours of explanations for everyone involved. A cook who has to pose as a model, a model who can't tell soup from Sachertorte, a fictitious niece, a sick mother, and a midlife-crisis Casanova who would rather have bought a Porsche. Based on a comedy by Marc Camoletti.
