Liebe, Lust & Hexenschuss - Liebe, Lust & Hexenschuss
They were once in love, romantic and passionate. And now? An aging couple stands before the shards of their marriage. And the decision on how to proceed in the future has basically already been made. Letters that the spouses have written to each other over the decades allow them to look back on their entire married life once more. Initially cynical and bitter, they are nevertheless reminded of how things once were between them. And in the end, the supposed marital backache turns out to be a hearty kick in the butt.
A comedy, scenically read by two actors who could not be better suited to each other! LOU HOFFNER and GEDEON BURKHARD impress with wit and depth.
