Apparently this theatric version doesn't end well though, noone listens to reason and they all shout "God is great!" at the end. Don't think I can find a local newspaper article in English if that is what you're after.
I read the original play in English translation, I meant this new version - English text or video with subtitles. Probably not to be found.

The recent wave of refugees and attendant difficulties is notably separate from any problems Germany and France and have had with long-established Turkish or North African demographics, respectively.

The most serious impediments to cultural harmony in Europe today are largely a factor of nativist right-wing hostility and intransigence. One precondition to flourishing is the rejection of both the European and Muslim reactionary elements.

It's sad that Eastern Europeans are among the worst offenders, because with their commitment their countries' depopulated rural zones could be revitalized through refugee resettlement and investment.

If you want another moonbat lefty humanist work of theater, set a play where Syrians arrive in the Bulgarian mountains, a lonely babushka finds meaning in her life by becoming engaged in the upbringing of the newcomers' children, everyone learns the value of community, everyone is sad when the seniors pass away, but are left optimistic with an eye to the future.
