This Play Shouldn't Exist (and I Was Supposed to Be on Holiday)

'One of the most fascinating experimental theatrical minds at the Fringe.' (BritishTheatreGuide.info)

Last year, retired playwright Jonas Müller received a box from an unknown sender. It contained an enormous handwritten book, a pink flash drive and a firm but friendly threat. This is the tale of what happened next. It's also about an elephant named Marcel, but let's not dwell on that. A never-ending tale about unbelievably true stories and the art of honest deception.
