Theater director Jan Koslowski and Rheinsberg's resident writer Olga Hohmann present an evening of texts and music. The focus here is on the apparent discrepancy between city and country, and the differences between the scenic quality of the city and the urban quality of the countryside. The theme of friendship also resonates.
In his well-known novella, Tucholsky already considered the journey to Rheinsberg as part of the country outing associated with "summer holidays." Both artists equally perceive being on the move as something special—driven by the impossible longing to arrive somewhere.
They alternate reading texts. In assigned roles, they read theatrical dialogues. There are singing interludes.
Jan Koslowski and Olga Hohmann have been working together since 2020. Both create performances and prose, which they have published with the Berlin-based Korbinian Verlag.
In 2023, Jan Koslowski organized a festival at the Deutsche Oper Berlin, in which Olga Hohmann participated as a performer, author, and actress. In 2024, the two spent a residency in the mountains, where they realized the performance "Toxic Gifts." This is currently being translated into a publication, which will be published in fall 2025.
