Nico Sauer kills Nico Sauer. By and with Nico Sauer
An empty stage. A body. Two parallel universes. In *I MUST DIE*, the performer Nico Sauer encounters – himself. And one of them won’t survive this! A solo musical theatre piece blending everyday musical sounds, Jacques Tati-style comedy and a nerve-wracking suspense thriller.

Light and music create two worlds that lie close to one another and yet know nothing of each other. Not yet, at least. For in the multiverse
, the slightest shift leads to catastrophe: one alter ego invades the other’s world – and commits murder.
A crime thriller spanning the worlds unfolds. The audience becomes a shadow-watcher, torn between conflicting perceptions: which level of reality can they trust? For whilst a murder is taking place in the sound cosmos, the protagonist waters the invisible flowers.
A musical solo multiverse thriller, somewhere between the absurd and the macabre – and at the same time a guide to the ultimate encounter with oneself: how do you recognise your alter ego? And how do you get there first? Because in the multiverse, the golden rule applies: IF YOU MEET YOUR DOUBLE, KILL IT!
