Outside, we probably would have never met. If we did, we would have passed each other by and found each other completely normal. Whatever that means, the normal. You probably won't find it in here. This is the cuckoo's nest, ruled by the head nurse, the ruler of this enclosed world. Here we all hang together, a huge tired heap. Every day the same: pills, food distribution, therapy, pills.

You're already confused in the head. You don't even resist anymore. You don't say anything. And so, no one disturbs the delirium. But then comes the new guy, McMurphy, and questions the rule. "Who's crazy here?" he shouts over and over again in the silent room. The ruler takes out the needle. And you know for sure: this won't end well.

"One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest" is the first production by Leander Haußmann at the RambaZamba Theater. He has worked at the Thalia Theater Hamburg, the Burgtheater Vienna, the Berliner Ensemble, and the Volksbühne am Rosa-Luxemburg-Platz, among others. From 1995-2000, Leander Haußmann was the artistic director of the Schauspielhaus Bochum. Last year, his movie "Leander Haußmann's Stasi comedy" was released, which, after "Sun Alley" (2000) and "NVA" (2005), completes his Stasi trilogy.
