Die Dramatische Bühne

This summer, the Dramatische Bühne is presenting plays from over 30 years of open-air festivals - from "Nosferatu" to "Die Nibelungen - Ritter der Kokosnuss". The vision is a revival of the ludicrous, foolhardy theatrical dream as it has been dreamed since Shakespeare's time: Stories full of silliness and profundity at the same time, rich in costume, scenery and (lazy) theatrical magic, the splendor and wretchedness of comedy and hokey theater, endearingly old-fashioned, hackneyed and glorious all at once.

King Lear, weary and drunk with melancholy, gives up his crown to sink light-heartedly into his grave. This dark endgame is constantly interrupted by enchanting comedy and melancholy wit, a dream play full of folly and melancholy, of the demons that slumber at the bottom of our souls.
