To My Little Boy

Aaron is forty, a geologist, lives in a shared flat, is handsome and healthy, has left his religious parents' house behind and instead enjoyed the party life. Everything could be fine – but for some reason he still does not feel purpose in life. No matter how hard he tries, ultimately there is only his cuddly toy pig Tupper that offers him support.

Caren Jeß writes a play about the absolute feeling of being overwhelmed in the present. She spans the arc between the fear of the end of the world, the inability to understand each other, and the eternal longing for security in love. She captures the spirit of a generation that has to confront the dizziness of a time that is overtaking itself in a frantically funny and deeply honest way.
