"I will love you, I will love you

will love you far beyond death." (Rio Reiser)

The Florida Bar was the most beautiful dive in town and, in times of hate and autocorrect, a shining refuge for all those in search of love, intoxication and theory-drunk conversations. The most intense and insightful days and nights were those when Sugar made the Florida bar the center of his life. Sugar's glorious irrationality and razor-sharp wit had always been a source of confidence and hilarity for us and had made it possible for us not only to endure the present, but also to enjoy it. "And it's about love," Sugar kept saying. "How can I understand you without love? How can I listen to you if there is no love? It's just a job then. But I want to love you! I want to take away your fear of the future and make the present the best time of your life!" That was Sugar. But now Sugar had left without saying goodbye and we were sitting here, in the Florida bar, wondering what to do next. Is there enough love left? In us? And enough recklessness and cleverness and anarchy? And why is the Florida Bar the only place of exuberance and dialectical thinking in this city? "Well," Sugar would have said, "Nobody's perfect. Not this city, not this country, and certainly not the lover. The lover doesn't want a long life, he wants the big feeling." And I think Sugar is right, because whatever the question is, the answer can only be: I will love you. After the successful premiere of the western Chico Zitrone in the Valley of Hope, the well-known actor and director Milan Peschel is developing a new evening of theater full of love with the Schwerin acting ensemble.
