38 average people are doing average things. They’re changing a lightbulb, looking at a painting, discovering a grey hair, recollecting a childhood memory, waiting in a hotel room, or chatting at a networking event. But in the play Vorher/Nacher, German writer Roland Schimmelpfennig moves the smallest of things within all these lives so that they will never be the same again. For years, Roland Schimmelpfennig has been one of the most performed playwrights in Germany. In the Netherlands, his works are performed less. Among others, he wrote Arabische Nacht and De Gouden Draak, which have only been performed in the Netherlands. Schimmelpfennig has an ability to integrate everyday themes and contemporary issues in a theatrical language that’s both poetic and accessible.
