When softness flows out of hardness… Yes, what is it then? When does it start to flow? And where? With whom? The eloquent and poetic title arouses curiosity about the topic and the Swiss author Julia Weber. It is her first text for the fringe ensemble, written after encounters and conversations with the actresses Bettina Marugg and Wanda Wylowa. Julia Weber continues one of the themes from her novel “Die Vermengung” and deals with aspects of female anger, resistance, reflection and liberation from role patterns. She discovers the typically feminine in a rage that does not destroy, but changes and creates new spaces.
