“Wunderbaum once again shows what it wants with Jena and what it can do.”
Michiel Laages (Nachtkritik)
In the performance ‘What’s happening, what’s all this?’ the audience witnesses the recordings of a sitcom about the integration of refugees in Western Europe. The series is recorded for the Arab world, but takes place at the heart of the European Union: a bicycle shop in the East German Thüringer Wald.
Syrian, Dutch and German actors together try to achieve a balanced narrative about the integration problems.
This Babel-like confusion of tongues will be fully provided with supertitles in both Dutch and Arabic.

“Opening performance of the summer show ‘What Have I Got on My Bike’ is a madcap Sitcom about culture-related clichés.”
