Dark humor, precision, tempo: Mindfully Murdering takes the stage at the City Theater Fürth
A bestseller meets stage magic: The theatrical adaptation of Karsten Dusse's cult novel Mindfully Murdering unfolds its full linguistic power in Fürth. Between crime comedy and mindfulness, it creates a literary experience that combines the subtle irony of the source material with rapid performance – an evening about work-life balance, morality, and murderously good punchlines.
The reading atmosphere of a crime comedy: voice, timing, punchline
What sparkles on the page with dry wit becomes a killing delight on stage: Actors switch roles with astonishing versatility, the linguistic art of the novel remains palpable, and the narrative condenses into a comedic pull. The character of Björn Diemel balances between mindfulness and abyss – a clever commentary on the present that elegantly subverts the genre.
From guidebook to stage: genre play with style
The adaptation by Bernd Schmidt translates Dusse's literary quality into theatrical form: rhythm, running gags, dark humor. The play expertly negotiates the mechanics of the crime comedy while utilizing mindfulness as a narrative engine. The result: a pointed stage piece that is both a thriller parody and a social satire.
Award-winning and celebrated
The production was honored with the INTHEGA Award Die Neuberin 2024 – a clear indication of artistic excellence and audience resonance. Reviews report standing ovations; the actors' precision carries the evening with ease.
Practically considered: arrival, accessibility, service
The City Theater Fürth is centrally located; the subway and bus stop nearby, parking garages are within walking distance. The access to the parquet is barrier-free, wheelchair spaces and hearing assistance (induction system in the parquet) are available. The box office opens one hour before the start.
Conclusion
Expect an elegant mix of dark humor, linguistic artistry, and fast-paced performance. Mindfully Murdering delivers the rare combination of depth and tears of laughter – an evening that charmingly brings literary discourse to the stage. Experience live, laugh, and let it resonate.
