When feelings disappear, the real game begins
On October 26, 2026, the TZE Project Theater zum Einsteigen will perform the profound comedy The Distant Feeling at the community center of the Landeskirchlichen Gemeinschaft MM e. V. in Memmingen. Ewald Landgraf's play combines sharp humor with a touching question: What remains of a person when their feelings are no longer there?
An emotional main character between excess and self-doubt
Maja experiences the world with full force. She is as joyous as a snow queen, mourns deeply, swears passionately, and reacts to every demand like a walking emotional volcano. Her family experiences this intensity as a burden, while Maja herself increasingly suffers from her emotionality. She believes she is a mistake that needs to be corrected.
The hormone preparation as a dramatic turning point
The dramaturgy relies on an absurd yet disturbing thought experiment: A newly developed hormone preparation is supposed to eliminate all feelings. The effect remains irreversible. From the comedic starting point emerges an exciting stage conflict about identity, self-acceptance, and the question of whether a seemingly easier life actually means a better life.
Comedy with depth and human warmth
The production by Theater zum Einsteigen connects acting art, situational wit, and Christian themes to create an accessible stage experience. Ewald Landgraf developed the piece as a loving plea for more satisfaction with oneself and others. The comedy arises from family entanglements and curious rescue attempts, while the dramaturgy repeatedly tips into reflective moments.
Theater zum Einsteigen: The stage as a communal experience
The TZE Project works with committed actors from communities and brings full-length productions to changing performance venues. This creates a special theater atmosphere: immediate, communal, and close to the audience. The Distant Feeling premiered in 2012 and lasts about 80 minutes.
Conclusion: An evening between laughter, reflection, and self-acceptance
Visitors can expect a charming comedy with pointed scenes, familial dynamics, and a surprisingly deep message. Those who experience theater as an encounter with human contradictions will find in Memmingen an evening full of humor, warmth, and food for thought. This stage experience deserves to be discovered live.
