Quick Info
Off to political activism, or rather to safety: to the big white bed.
Imagine you're pregnant and no one must know. And the man you've been waiting for for four years has gone off to war. Imagine that your parents love their country more than you and offer you as a bride to someone who will take over their factory. Imagine a riot raging outside because the state is failing. In Felicitas Brucker's production of Trommeln in der Nacht, with texts by Şeyda Kurt, Bertolt Brecht's 1922 play is put to the test of our times: who benefits from the war and who rebels? At the front, in the marriage bed and on the streets? Writer Şeyda Kurt expands Brecht's early play about the war returnee Kragler with texts by women who neither want to sell out nor wait.
