Between Schaffhausen and Biel, Visp and Rheinfelden, Altdorf and Buchs, there are hundreds of city theaters, restaurants, multipurpose halls, and community centers. In this Switzerland, Beat Schlatter - actor, cabaret artist, screenwriter, and one of the most well-known Swiss personalities - has been on the road for over 30 years, and his journeys usually end where there is a front, a stage, and a backstage. Now, for the first time, he opens the doors to over 200 transit zones of show business in German-speaking Switzerland, where all the stars, rising stars, and stage veterans wait for their performance: the backstage. When he is on tour, Beat Schlatter photographs these dull passageways with standard quality. It doesn’t matter what type of venue they are in: they are all somewhat dreary, with their well-intentioned fruit bowls that appear time and again.
