OH, THE THINGS THAT CAN HAPPEN!*
* from Franz Kafka’s The Burrow
We are once again drawing on unlimited resources for our last season and are celebrating seeing one another again with many old and new faces: Director Rieke Süßkow, who recently invited us to the Theatertreffen in Berlin, starts out with a classic of American realism, while David Bösch is presenting one of his own works for the first time. In his seventh production with us, director Christian Brey is working once more with house author Philipp Löhle, Branko Janack’s fourth work continues our continuous focus on the lived realities of people who emigrate, and Martina Gredler’s and Boris Nikitin’s third works in Nuremberg will be debuting on the big stage and the urban space, respectively. Hungarian director Ildikó Gáspár was inspired by a novel by local author Gisela Elsner for her Nuremberg debut: Sacred Blood follows former Nazis out in the German wilderness and invites the audience to reflect on the surge in right-wing politics and hatred in the present day.
The Extended Reality Theater – XRT is going into its second round and will present a digital, live experience of The Burrow for the 100th anniversary of Kafka’s death; Ingeborg Bachmann’s Malina; a digital theatre series, and much more. There will also be improv theatre, the popular series in the 3. Etage, the Import/Export Cafes and a series of discussions with the title “Different tomorrow” (“Und morgen dann anders”). The fifteenth and final title I am directing is called Eliza, like Eliza Doolittle from Shaw’s Pygmalion in which a pair of young authors address fundamental questions about language, status and power.
We look forward to a brilliant conclusion, and many enriching theatre experiences until then!
Your Jan Philipp Gloger
Director of Drama
