Christopher Rüping’s Einfach das Ende der Welt was actually supposed to be performed at the Schauspielhaus in the spring of 2020. While the whole world didn’t simply come to an end, daily life did, interrupting rehearsals before the production could take place.
So now it will continue, with the story of 34-year-old Louis who left his family decades ago and now returns to his small hometown and his family as a successful artist. He only does so, however, to simply end it, once and for all. But this time, for real.
