Stay Hydrated is a performance for the fortunate in unfortunate times. How should you live when everything is relatively fine, yet disaster waits around every corner? Should you enjoy the moment, or prepare for what is to come? And how can you do either when you don’t know what is coming?

Together with a hand-picked team, Blaue Frau invites you to a physical performance about life while waiting for the world to end — as absurd as the rest of the world. Tumble dryers and dietary advice, crisis meetings and rubber boots, friends, acquaintances, and desert flowers… Somewhere, the key to a meaningful life is hidden despite everything. Maybe it will be found, maybe not. Regardless: Stay Hydrated.
