hello nobody: A Political Roadtrip in Verses in the Oval Office

On Friday, December 18, 2026, the Schauspielhaus Bochum invites you to an unusual theater evening in the Oval Office. hello nobody combines contemporary poetry, political satire, and acting into an intense event experience about identity, belief, sexuality, and the contradictions of a torn present.

Full Throttle Through a Contradictory Germany

At the center is a hero who drives from Vienna to Berlin in a red Audi A6 to become Chancellor. His journey takes him through highway rest areas and Penny parking lots, past left and right demonstrations, by the Bundestag, and onto a circus ground. Ultimately, he ends up in a police interrogation room. The rapid stops form the unusual framework for a theatrical travelogue of Germany full of absurd twists.

Political Satire Meets Contemporary Poetry

Yevgeniy Breyger's narrative long poem hello nobody merges humorous political satire with a serious examination of the injury to body and spirit in times of war and totalitarian reality enforcement. Eccentric characters, religious motifs, and well-known political names confront questions of personal belonging and societal responsibility.

An Evening for Curious Theatergoers

Director Lucien Strauch develops a production in the Oval Office that closely intertwines text, performance, and political observation. Danai Chatzipetrou, Oliver Möller, and Alexander Wertmann are on stage. The audience's mood thrives on the immediate proximity of the variable event venue, which regularly brings literature, documentation, music, conversation, and drama together at the Schauspielhaus Bochum.

A Distinguished Author, Eccentric Perspective

Yevgeniy Breyger, born in 1989 in Kharkiv, is one of the defining contemporary German-speaking poets. His awards include the Christine Lavant Prize, the Klopstock Prize for new literature, and the Literature Prize of the German Economy. His poetic language meets a consistently political theater concept in this world premiere.

Conclusion: Theater as an Awake View of the Present

hello nobody promises a concentrated theater evening with dark humor, poetic language, and social friction. Those who appreciate political contemporary drama, unusual stage forms, and an intense event atmosphere will experience in the Oval Office a road trip that lingers long after. Tickets are available in advance and at the box office; the Pay-what-you-want principle applies in the Oval Office.
