“What? You left the city because you got a job in Parchim? We’re getting out of here because we can’t get one in Parchim!” Gesa and Arikia had imagined something different for their first theatre jobs. After all, they both come from the big city of Hamburg. Dieter Schumann accompanied the two actors at the Parchim Theatre for two years, through all their highs and lows. Ina Borrmann
