hello nobody: A Political Road Trip in Verses

On Saturday, December 19, 2026, the Oval Office of the Schauspielhaus Bochum will become a stage for an unusual theater experience between contemporary poetry, political satire, and performative language art. The performance begins at 8:00 PM and lasts about an hour.

A Journey in the Red Audi through the Present

At the center of hello nobody is a hero who drives a red Audi A6 from Vienna to Berlin to become Chancellor. His route takes him through highway rest stops, Penny parking lots, demonstrations, a circus ground, and finally into a police interrogation room. From this road trip in verses emerges a sharply observed picture of a politically charged society.

Poetic Language Meets Bitter Humor

Yevgeniy Breyger's narrative long poem combines rapid scenes with lyrical density. Eccentric encounters with pastors, rabbis, God, and His angry Jewish counterpart G'tt intersect with well-known political figures and questions of identity, faith, and sexuality. The evening shifts between absurd wit, necessary despair, and social friction.

A Frequently Awarded Author

Yevgeniy Breyger, born in 1989 in Kharkiv, is considered one of the defining voices of contemporary German-language poetry. For his literary work, he has received several awards, including the Christine-Lavant-Preis, the Klopstock Prize for new literature, and the Literature Prize of the German Economy. His political relevance and the distinctive form of hello nobody are at the center of the world premiere.

Theater in the Oval Office

Director Lucien Strauch develops a theatrical travel report of Germany in the Oval Office that closely ties language, movement, and current political reality together. On stage are Danai Chatzipetrou, Oliver Möller, and Alexander Wertmann. The variable playing space of the Schauspielhaus Bochum creates an immediate event atmosphere in which audience mood and stage action come particularly close together.

Conclusion: Contemporary Theater with Linguistic Power

hello nobody invites its audience to a concentrated event experience between road movie, poem, and political theater. Those who want to live experience contemporary stage art, contemporary poetry, and dark humor with social gravity will find an extraordinary theater evening in the Oval Office. Mark the date now and experience the poetic journey through a fragile present.
