Musical Prelude to the Lecture Series "BioChemistry on Saturday 2019"

Chemistry: Lab - Concert

Thursday, 2019/09/26, 16:00


The project "Chemistry: Lab" tells the cliché story of the "crazy professor" in an authentic way. It is about a laboratory experiment, whose four eccentric "scientists" cross every boundary to find the Elixir of eternal youth. We want to address the ever-present ideal of beauty that has become deeply rooted as a social norm in our everyday lives through marketing.
In the project, the four women scientists try to tackle this problem through various absurd experiments, and each of them considers her unique solution to be the best. This creates a kind of competition, which increases the dramaturgical structure and finally leads to the total disaster:
The professors must realize that the fight can not be won.
