  • 1 Want to read

A man walks onto the stage with a bouquet of roses in his hand. He begins to speak. The man's name is Sad, he is an Arab. In the evening he sells roses to finance his studies. The hatred of the population towards him is so intense that he begins to turn on himself, That's correct, he says, I am dirty. I wash my hands, but I remain dirty. That's correct. The intensity Of his monologue increases; it becomes passionate, desperate. He continues to speak. He screams. Screams for his life.

Robert Schneider's play about prejudice and anti-foreign sentiment has become one of the most frequently performed works on the contemporary German stage.

Work Description

Ein Mann betritt die Bühne, in der Hand einen Strauß Rosen. Er fängt an zu reden, zu erzählen, zu schreien. Er heißt Sad. Er ist Ausländer. Araber. An den Abenden verkauft er Rosen, um sein Studium zu finanzieren. In einem großen Monolog erzählt er von sich und seiner Heimat, von seinen Erinnerungen, seinen Träumen, seinen Hoffnungen.
