Three Times Left is Right is a performance about radical opposites living together. Inspired by a Viennese couple (she is a pioneering thinker in the Identitarian movement, he is a cultural science scholar with a communist background), theatre maker Julian Hetzel examines the proximity of hatred and love and how the private becomes political.

Three Times Left is Right is a performance about radical opposites living together. It is a family portrait that examines the relationship between the populist right wing and the liberal left wing in the private, European and global spheres. The German theatre maker Julian Hetzel is inspired by a Viennese couple: she is a leading intellectual in the New Right and the Identitarian movement, while he is a scholar of cultural studies with a communist past. The couple and their children debate irreconcilable positions at the dinner table. While the new right is successfully claiming the vocabulary and revolutionary attitude of the old left, the left is undergoing an identity crisis. The actors Kristien de Proost and Josse de Pauw, who are themselves a couple off the stage, explore this phenomenon in Three Times Left is Right, examining the proximity of love and hatred and revealing where the private becomes political.
