Mariannes großes Debüt

As part of Le Lampenfieber 2026: »Are We A Thing?«

– Person kniet auf dunkler Bühne, von hellem Scheinwerferlicht beleuchtet, trägt langes Oberteil und Shorts, Hintergrund dunkel.

An imperfect evening of theatre becomes a mirror of inner upheaval: Marianne dreams of a glamorous debut as a female icon in the spotlight — with dance, song and breathtaking costumes. But the audience arrives too early, meeting Marianne not in the radiance of perfection, but in vulnerability and uncertainty. Despite the adverse circumstances, Marianne holds fast to her dream. In doing so, the unfinished becomes a central element: it opens up a space in which desires, struggles and the complex entanglements of queer identity are negotiated.

Paul Marianne Furtwängler, born in 1999 in Munich, completed a Master’s in Expanded Theatre at the HKB Bern in 2025. Their work focuses on the intersection of acting, movement and queer forms of storytelling.
