How to give advice to an entire audience?

Each of us passes through a number of stages on the path of life. Infancy, childhood, adolescence, identity formation, the search for success and finally the acceptance of maturity. As we struggle and surpass each stage, we challenge, strengthen and release parts of ourselves. „Die Ratgeber,“ (the Counselor) personifies these struggles and successes onstage by reflecting the audience as a whole in the performance.
