Suse Wächter is the inventor of a world populated by revenants of the 20th century. In her epochal performance Heroes of the 20th Century the immortal stars, demons of history and unforgotten heroines of our dreams appeared. Her more than one hundred puppet characters are deceptively real copies of the undead that still haunt our minds.

In her new work, the household god Bertolt Brecht is haunted by the countless ghosts he encountered during his long exile and on his return to the Theater am Schiffbauerdamm. Together with two musicians, a puppeteer and an actress, an evening séance is created in which the small beings with the big aura play their game. The many artists Brecht encountered are expected. The appearance of Karl Marx is hoped for. And the appearance of the many actors who have often heard of the famous alienation effect and now finally want to hear the explanation from the mouth of the master is certain.
