A Shakespeare project
Annual production Otto Falckenberg School
Directed by: Jorinde Dröse & Anne Habermehl
In dealing with the universal themes of love, identity, origin and power, Shakespeare’s works - despite or precisely because of their age - offer an incorruptible power. Together with the 3rd year students of the Otto Falckenberg School, directors Anne Habermehl and Jorinde Dröse examine Shakespeare’s greatest hits.
Titania and Oberon’s conflict sparks a confusion of emotions, which Puck joyfully drives even further into the centrifuge of identities. In the forest at night, Hamlet meets a ghost, Juliet loves Romeo, Helena pursues her lover, Lady Macbeth and Macbeth plot murder and Othello gets a mad flea of jealousy in his ear. A firework display of emotions, love, greed for life and power, at the end of which the question arises: is it possible to change the narrative of these greedy entanglements?
The artist Sofiia Melnyk creates a live-drawn stage space for this magical night. Costume designer Juliane Kalkowski creates a universe of fantasy. After the work “Glow Box BRD”, this is the second work by the directing team.
