Ever tried to order coffee in a foreign country and ended up with a haircut? Or found love in translation — and then lost it again? In this hilarious and heartfelt Playback Theatre performance, actors bring to life real stories from the audience about navigating — or failing to navigate — the tricky terrain of language. From awkward misunderstandings to unexpected connections, Language Barrier celebrates the comedy and chaos of cross-cultural communication. No script. Just truth, laughter, and the universal language of theatre.In German, English, Russian, Ukrainian and other languages...

Special feature:  Wellknown cabaret artist and cartoonist Micki Drux
(Druxache.com) will be drawing live during the performance, inspired from what happens  on stage.  The pictures will be available for purchase afterwards. 
Enjoy this rare opportunity of artistic crossover !

Playback Theatre is a traveling ensemble of improvisational performers who turn real audience stories into spontaneous stage magic. With humor, empathy, and global flair, they bring to life the moments that matter — told by you, played by them. Wherever they go, the stage becomes a mirror of the people.
