(Asian Premiere)

the holycoaster s(HIT) circus is a shrewd mockumentary about the encounter of German and Swiss actors with Israeli dancers, as well as their cherished intentions towards one another. As they attempt to approach one another with tolerance and starry-eyed idealism, their personal and private prejudices are exposed.

Uncensored, politically incorrect, and yet honest, the holycoaster s(HIT) circus is a blend of Borat and Eskimo Limon, whilst presenting our stilted understanding of age-old problems that remain unresolved. Come join us on this wild ride of questioning of yourself, your taste, your tolerance, your perception, your wife, your god, and your own borders. May we present to you: Sexy Religious Multi-Media-Entertainment with Dance & Music.

Beyond political correctness, [PENG! Palast] juggle with nasty clichés where laughter gets stuck in your throat time and again, since there is of course a lot of truth in those caricatures. Are these, in fact, one’s own prejudices which are confirmed by this gang of loonies?... At the end of this cabaret it feels like after a cleansing thunderstorm. And everybody got wet in the process.

... PENG! Palast are the base-jumpers of the freelance theatre scene and they are moving, grip by grip along a rope over the abyss of bad taste without safety nets whatsoever.
