Four astronauts are teleported to a gymnasium by a mysterious voice. The voice needs players for its self-conceived game. Large black-and-white pawns, tribunes and props with man-er-je-not aesthetics transform the gym into a gameshow. The astronauts play the game together with the children. The voice decides about right and wrong. Who gets points or no points. Only after the game is played are the astronauts allowed to return to the moon. But how fair are the rules of this game? Why does the voice decide everything? And is there actually any way to win here?

 Dat Is Toch Net Earlik! is a unique interactive theater play in a gym.  While playing, the children are confronted with differences and questioned about their sense of justice on a small and large scale.
