Warten auf Godot (Waiting for Godot) - 24 Apr

by Samuel Beckett
Abo 42
Prices G
17 bis 57 €

Vladimir and Estragon are waiting for Godot, who they neither know who he is nor what they actually want from him.

Die Gewehre der Frau Carrar/Würgendes Blei (Senora Carrar’s rifles/Choking Lead) - 24 Apr

by Bertolt Brecht / a sequel by Björn SC Deigner
World Premiere/Commissioned Work
Prices V
33 €
If applicable, remaining tickets

1937 in a fishing village after the outbreak of the Spanish Civil War. Mrs. Carrar has forbidden her sons to join the fight against Franco. She desperately hopes to be spared war and terror. But how much longer can she protect herself and her sons? And what should she say to her brother, who demands that she hand over the guns hidden in the house and asks the all-important question: «If the sharks attack you, is it you who will use violence?» In Brecht's short play, everything revolves around the unsettling question of the possibility of neutral abstention. In his play «Choking Lead», playwright Björn SC Deigner continues Brecht's question in the present and searches for a language for the timeless horror of war and destruction.
