Hooked on a Book

Two people meet and open a book: they start reading through it – the book asks questions and encourages exchange and conversation – about life and the world on a large and small scale, about what separates and connects us, about being alone and being together. 

A completely analogue, yet interactive piece between two strangers. A double exposure. Wherever. A play that needs no stage and no spectators. A play that can take place in any corner of the world: a hermit's farm, a small town, a metropolis. 

Page by page, the two people become entangled and thus become the main characters of the book.

In addition to the individual events, you can borrow the book at any time from

• the Kelkheim Town Library (Am Marktplatz 1, 65779 Kelkheim Taunus)
• theMühlheim Town Library Town Library (Dietesheimer Straße 90, 63165 Mühlheim am Main)
