Aufguss - A Comedy of Misunderstandings at the Wellness Hotel

A nationwide stage hit by René Heinersdorff.

Dieter, a successful detergent manufacturer, wants to grant his girlfriend Mary her greatest wish: to become a mother. Since he can't manage that himself, he hires fitness trainer Alain - nicknamed "The Brain" - as a sperm donor and promptly books him into the same wellness hotel to sort everything out on the spot.

At the same time, Lothar, the director of a children's clinic, arrives with his assistant Emilie - he wants to persuade Dieter to make a generous financial donation to his clinic. What follows is a string of unexpected entanglements around the word "donation" and a fateful mix-up between the two donors.

The Westfälische Rundschau says: "Punchlines firing non-stop!", "Brilliant wordplay!" and "Every joke landed perfectly and was excellently crafted."
