In the piece be.ware, audience and performers, separated by panes of glass, encounter each other in an examination of various aspects of the lack of physical closeness in times of COVID-19. In a small group, the audience is taken on a journey on which it encounters various images on its way from public space to private interior space, which reveal the personal confrontations and interpretations of the 12 performers, ranging in age from under 20 to over 60.
