The Trojan Horse is the legend of a perfect stroke of genius. Sitting as a group inside the famous wooden horse, the audience experiences ancient history up close from this perspective. The multimedia theater course combines myth with contemporary history and plays with the construction of reality.

The war has already lasted too long. How can it finally be ended? If not on the battlefield, then perhaps with a trick, a clever move? The saga of the famous wooden horse symbolizes how staging and the manipulation of messages can decide wars. It is the one who determines what is "true" who wins.

Post Theater stages this myth as a struggle for truth in a maximally immersive manner and draws on extensive experience with video art and performance: multi-channel video, surround audio, acting, and dance come together. The audience encounters well-known figures from ancient mythology and experiences them in a new, intimate way.
