A wedding turns out to be a "vanishing point" for some of the guests. The only point they have in common is that they
all wish to vanish and escape from their life as it is. Some of the grand delusions they lived with up to now are quite
sophisticated, others are fairly crude; and in the course of the wedding all these delusions explode one after another in a big
bang.
Some parts of my translation have been used in a short scenic play reading at the Forum Freies Theater in
April 2006 in Düsseldorf.
One year later Thomas Balkenhol made another translation for the "Stückemarkt 2007" in Berlin.
