by and with Yousef Sweid
Director + Co-Author: Isabella Sedlak
Produced by Maxim Gorki Theater Berlin
Palestinian-Israeli actor Yousef Sweid dives into the chaos of identity, truth, and family life in Between The River And The Sea. Raised as a Christian-Arab kid in Haifa, now raising two Jewish-Arab kids in Berlin, he unpacks his in-between-ness – where contradictions clash and slogans fail. With biting humour and raw honesty, Sweid weaves personal stories, political reflection, and absurd everyday moments into a sharp, unflinching solo performance.
BETWEEN THE RIVER AND THE SEA will be shown as part of steirischer herbst ’25 on October 12, 2025 in Graz (Dom im Berg, Schloßbergplatz).
The premiere of WOZZECK will take place on 12 October 2025 at 7:30 p.m. at the Staatstheater Braunschweig (Großes Haus).
With her biting, absurd comedy DER DÄMON IN DIR MUSS TRAUER TRAGEN at Theater Dortmund, Lola Fuchs was invited to join radikal jung in Munich. Now she has adapted and staged the classic play, turning the courtroom comedy into a biting media satire. What begins as a minor trial becomes a mirror of social abysses – somewhere between courtroom drama, Instagram reality and suppressed provincial madness.
The premiere will take place on 11 October 2025 at 7:30 p.m. in the Schauspielhaus of the Theater Dortmund.
After the success of her stand-up show Female Shit, in which Orit Nahmias candidly shared her painful and hilarious stories about moving from Tel Aviv to Berlin, and becoming a mother while trying to save her marriage, she now takes to the stage as a middle-aged, divorced woman exploring her fear of death and her lust for life. With brutal honesty and self-irony, she delves into the tangled intersection of love, sex, trauma and politics – fully aware of the explosive nature of these topics.
The world premiere will take place at Maxim Gorki Theater on October 10, 2025.
Additional shows: October 11+29; November 8.
