Die 7 Tage von Mariahaim
Nesterval / Vereinigte Bühnen Bozen
© Alexandra Thompson
South Tyrol, 1965: Anna-Lisa, a farmer's daughter, is preparing for her wedding to Johannes, a farmhand, when her past catches up with her. Two uninvited guests arrive in the village—and with them, the knowledge of a gruesome crime. As the idyll gradually crumbles, the silence that lasted for generations over the villagers breaks with violence and hatred. What was supposed to end with a wedding now begins with a funeral banquet. Visitors are invited to the wedding. As they look back, they experience "The 7 Days of Mariahaim," which changes everyone and everything. The immersive theatre ensemble Nesterval considers itself queer folk theater. At the heart of each production is the desire to play, the creation of a theatrical experience, and the involvement of the audience in the performance. Die 7 Tage von Mariahaim is a version of the play Das Dorf, nominated for the Nestroy Prize in 2019, adapted for Vereinigte Bühnen Bozen and Transart Festival. Visitors embark on a search for the magic of home, a place of nostalgia, and explore big questions about foreignness, violence, love and guilt. Gender roles and role models are blurred and the concept of home is opened to a more diverse society.
A co-production with Vereinigte Bühnen Bozen
