In „Morrison Hotel“, the actress Gilla Cremer encounters two men: her elder brother Tom and Jim Morrison, lead singer of the legendary rock band the Doors. Men whose radical, excessive ‚ and finally suicidal ‚ way of life she once admired. And she tells us about searching for an identity of one’s own in the seventies. In the late sixties, the student Tom Cremer, like many of his contemporaries, is looking for a way of changing the world: „One has to decide: either to be a pig or a man. There’s nothing in between.“ In the mid-seventies he begins to experience first bouts of schizophrenia. In 1995 he falls out of the window and dies. „Some say he jumped deliberately. Others say he lost his balance. It all happened so quickly.“
The production has guested in English in Poland, Denmark, New Zealand.
