Packer Galy Gay goes into town to buy a fish. On the way, he meets three soldiers from a special unit who have lost their fourth man during a break-in at a petrol station. To avoid attracting attention, they transform him into this fourth man. Galy Gay becomes Jeraiah Jip. At first it's just the name. Eventually he takes on the identity of the other. With this parable about the transformation of the bourgeois individual into a human fighting machine, Brecht demonstrates the susceptibility of liberal societies to authoritarian movements. Critical fun full of absurd humour, crude slapstick and sad and funny songs.
The music by Paul Dessau has been adapted for Theater Basel by Evelinn Trouble.
