History
HISTORY IS MADE. IT PROGESSES (Fehlfarben)
The story of TiB can either be told quickly or it could take a lot of time.
The short version could read as follows: A group of students of various disciplines gets together in the late eighties and early nineties to do theater work.
And the long version is a list of milestones without dates, with big gaps... and in the end it will be confusing, because there must be secrets...
