“I’d never really given much thought to how I’d die – but dying in the Allgäu? That would never have crossed my mind.”
Isabella Schwan, a perfectly normal (!) girl, is enjoying life in Mallorca – until her mum Renate marries Paul, a third-division footballer, and hands Bella – along with her favourite palm tree – over to her dad. Her father Karl is the village constable in Oberstdorf in the Allgäu, the rainiest place in Germany, where not even a special episode of *Tatort* would venture. Needless to say, this isn’t particularly appealing to a sun-kissed 17-year-old. Until she meets the mysterious Eduard Keuler whilst peeling onions: the Keulers are magically alluring, mysterious, sexy and (if you believe Bella’s childhood friend, Jakob Schwarz, ‘the Walser wolf in sheep’s clothing’), abysmally evil. Or you might not believe him and let Eduard Keuler (who describes himself as a ‘sick, masochistic lion’) invite you out for a meal. He won’t bite, he just wants to play. Or will he?
TRIGGER WARNING: This play deals with or contains depictions of: stalking, domestic violence, sexual violence, murder, death, depression and suicidal thoughts.
Following on from Shakespeare, Wedekind and Erdman, ‘Bühne Frei!’ turns its attention to yet another giant of world literature: Stephanie Meyer’s *Twilight*! With bite and plenty of humour, the student theatre group dissects this cult classic. What does it mean to set *Twilight* in the Allgäu? Is Edward really that charming? And do werewolves actually have to pay dog licence tax? Find out for yourselves! On 23 and 24 October at 7 pm – free of charge at Freiraum! Hoahoahoahoahoahoaaaa….
