One could mistake the theater for a slaughterhouse. There is a lot of dying on the stages of this world.

And with great matter-of-factness. In society, on the other hand, we perceive death nowadays almost only as a blank space; in real life in particular, death is mainly offstage. 

Young actors get caught up in this tension during their training. At an age when one hardly gives a thought to one's own death, they are taught how to die.

But can death be portrayed at all? Can dying be taught and learned? And how do actors deal with this special requirement?

A collage, an experiment about stage death.
