Falling in Love

The play is called: Falling in Love.
It is a theatre play.

One person performs.
The person stands alone on stage.
The play is about love.
And about falling in love.

What is it about in general?

The play asks:
How does love begin?

Can you choose
who you love?
Or do you fall in love
without planning it?

The audience plays an important role.
The actor performs on stage.
The audience watches.

The audience may fall in love.
With the actor.
Maybe.
A little bit.

What is it about exactly?

The actor is Gunnar Seidel.
He talks about his life in the theatre.
He also tells invented stories.

He shows different sides of love.
Love can be beautiful.
Love can be confusing.

The play asks:
What does a person do
so that others fall in love with them?

The play shows:
Falling in love often feels magical.
But maybe there are also rules.
Maybe we can influence feelings.

The audience experiences this process directly.
They become part of the play.

The world premiere was in 2018.
The place was Tafelhalle Nuremberg.

The direction was by Maria Isabel Hagen.
On stage was Gunnar Seidel.

The play was supported
by cultural institutions and foundations.
