Foreign or Not Foreign – Theaterplays

Original Title in German: Fremd nicht fremd – Theaterstücke

Edition Ovidia / Vienna, 2022

113 pages

The book contains five humorous, cheerful and inspiring theater texts on the subject of being a foreigner. The actors are people with a migration background and their encounter with people with a non-migration background: the confrontation in the mutual relationship, their preoccupation with success, with cultural views, with social status, with family issues. Through the meeting, the characters are also confronted with themselves – with their fears and their weaknesses, but also with their generosity and their open-mindedness.
