He, the son, visits his mother in the nursing home every Sunday. He helps his mother get dressed, feeds her, and engages in conversations with her about the same things: that Aunt Ursel has gotten her pills and she hasn't, that complete strangers come to visit and act as if they know each other.
What makes this dialogue special for an actor is that he plays both himself and the mother, with delicate, sensitive nuances and great love and reverence for the woman who, at the end of her life, only lives from encounter to encounter, seeking support from her confused mind in her son. And then the weekly walk out into the garden becomes an adventurous expedition for her. The wonders of the world: "Everything is so beautiful," says the mother, who has become childlike with wonder - long ago, the roles were reversed.

Joop Admiraal was born in the Netherlands in 1937. He worked as an actor at De Nederlandse Comedie and the renowned avant-garde stage Het Werkteater. He received the Prix Loui-d'Or and the Adolf-Grimme-Preis for his play "You are my mother."

Du bist meine Mutter - Theaterhaus Schauspiel

YOU ARE MY MOTHER
by Joop Admiraal (translated into German by Monika The)

On June 15, 2004, this play with Stephan Moos as the performer had its premiere at the Theaterhaus. Now, 16 years later, after a revision of the script, Stephan Moos will once again showcase his great acting versatility on stage. The son visits his mother in a nursing home. The routine of their weekly encounters with their constant ritual fades into an intense, loving dialogue, infused with subtle humor and a melancholic mood. The drama achieves an impressive form with the portrayal of mother and son by a single actor. The play, first performed in 1981 in Amsterdam, has not lost its significance. The vulnerability of elderly people, their dependency on their loved ones, the growing lack of zest for life, and the controversy surrounding the premature termination of the decay process are themes that have become even more relevant since the play's inception, gaining new urgency in the times of Corona.

"It is a sophisticated interplay between the characters that requires the utmost concentration and precision. With Stephan Moss, every detail is in place... 'You Are My Mother' is also pure acting art, exciting theater with intriguing characters."
Stuttgarter Zeitung, June 18, 2004
