"Welcome, stranger!" – Plan B is in its form a homage to the cabaret, the variety show, with whose image Berlin's culture is so closely associated – both historically and today. Although this piece incorporates acrobatic elements and humour, the "numbers" in the program are not "authentic" variety numbers but rather small dance pieces (and a small concert), which might at first seem to stand each on their own, independently of each other, but which are in fact linked to each other by a number of common themes.
In Plan B we observe the phenomenon of the outer hull which is imposed on the individual by society and the relationships between these hulls – these stereotypes or images – and that which we conceive of as our "true, naked self". We take a look at our national backgrounds, at how, through these, we might later be stamped by society as foreigners; and at our childhood, where our relationship to the world and to ourselves is first shaped. All this takes place in a somewhat surrealist stage setting, which, through a milieu of hats and chairs floating in the air, suggests weightlessness, an underwater environment, or a dream world.
