Eighteen theatregoers at Stuttgart’s state opera required medical treatment for severe nausea over the weekend after watching a performance that included live piercing, unsimulated sexual intercourse and copious amounts of fake and real blood.

How do I see or even find out about crazy shows like this?
Dafaq am I reading?
Sounds like a Genitorturers concert!
I saw something like this at a goth Burlesque in the PNW, with a cheek piercing. I’m not sure what caused so many people in this performance to feel ill though, I don’t see many details.
I don’t see many details.
They probably saw ALL the details
Once one person gets sick it’s human instinct to follow up.
Maybe all the blood and shit
why would you sign up for something like this if you’re a goddamn pussy
It looks like there were warnings in advance too
Visitors to the adults-only show were alerted in advance to a long list of warnings for potential triggers including incense, loud noises, explicit sexual acts and sexual violence.
FWIW, I’m a sideshow performer and have been in shows that were exactly like this (though I don’t do full nudity or piercing). There’s always a content warning at the top of the show. Though I’m surprised (but not) they allowed live sex. Even where I live, which has pretty lenient blue laws, live sex is a hard no.
Also, this sounds amazing
The version that unsettled audience members in Stuttgart this year supplanted the original musical performance with naked nuns rollerskating on a movable half-pipe at the centre of the stage, a wall of crucified naked bodies and a lesbian priest saying mass.
How are you supposed to know the priest is a lesbian if they didn’t tell you?
live sex ig
How do you know if someone is a nun when they are all naked? 🤔
It’s a matter of habit.
Good technique in dance to me is not just someone who can do a perfect tendu, but also someone who can urinate on cue,” Holzinger told the Guardian in an interview earlier this year.
Just your average choreographer 😄
Hindemith’s original opera tells the story of a young nun who, aroused by a tale told by one of the nunnery’s older women, steps on to the altar naked and rips the loincloth from Christ’s torso. An encounter with a large spider leads her to repent her action and beg the other nuns to wall her up alive.
Maybe the war on drugs wasn’t so bad after all.
Couldn’t disagree more, that sounds hilarious 😄
“To me, a good dancer is someone who can urinate on cue”
Wtf dude
Very good splits Hazel, now shit on Julia’s chest. I said give Julia a Cleveland Streamer!!!
That’s show business, folks!

Lmao, that’s great. I almost suspect the cases of severe nausea to be press baiting, it’s just a little too good.
The person announcing that people needed medical care is the spokesperson for the play. Very obvious PR bait.
I wish they weren’t all sold out, I kinda want to see it now. It’s working! 😂
If you’re ever in NYC just go to The Box. You’ll see the same exact shit, literally.
Though expect to pay $2000 for tickets at 1am on a Wednesday night because the venue solely exists to milk rich people
Sounds like a fun time.
Yeah, I’m sure that’s accurate and complete information, and not just a shock horror show fishing for attention.
“The Aristocrats!”
Beautiful! I kept up the whole time and got the joke!

A friend of mine has a condition that can easily cause him to pass out from seeing blood, or indeed picturing blood in his mind. I remember us listening to a guy talking about a surgery he had recently gone through, one that involved fixing an artery, et voila, my friend suddenly passed out.
My only point being that some people can be very sensitive, and my buddy would’ve no doubt spent a performance like this drifting in and out of consciousness.
That’s terrible but also very useful to get out of uncomfortable situations
Its actually his superhero power
I have friends like this and with my lifestyle and history of emergency response, I can’t fathom it. Apart from trained hygiene precautions, my brain just never reacts to blood apart from it being an indicator of the next actions to take to keep as much of it inside as possible. I’ve had a shower off a firetruck to get blood off—clothes ruined, still washing blood out of my hair once I got home—but training kept those two alive in time for paramedics to arrive. That’s all my brain thought about. They found out and my buddy and I got a call from the hospital to meet them ♥️
But then I have another friend that gets queasy seeing a scratch and has passed out from a needle…
Some of us just have very different survival instincts. Fight or flight seem to both work very well so long as you’re one of the other. But they certainly can’t understand each other.
I had a friend in high school who got squeamish at the sight of blood, or at least that’s what we all thought. She went on to become a surgeon. Turns out, it’s the idea of people being in pain that got to her. Operating on someone who’s out cold was absolutely fine even if they’re gushing blood all over the place, because they can’t feel it.
I get the same impact, but different response. When I see people in trouble, I have to help. I even started surf life rescue at 12 after saving a few people over time while surfing. It hasn’t stopped and I did more and more, wanting to he a combat medic. The adrenaline that surges seeing trouble is uncontrollable. I do anything short of pure stupidity to save a life and realised it’s a rare trait to have it that extreme, so wanted to ensure it was being put to use.
I hate seeing trauma and my reaction is to fix it at whatever cost. So, much respect to your surgeon friend, I totally get her.
People in Stuttgart are too sheltered. In Berlin that wouldn’t stand out in an average Friday.
Going to the Opera on Saturday, but it probably won’t be this much fun. Shame.

Schon mal im Laboratory?
