«Die Chinesische Mauer» zu Gast an der ZHB

Description

Béla Rothenbühler presents his Swiss German adaptation of Max Frisch's play, engaging in a discussion with performers Norbert Metzler and Dinah Knuchel about this satirical piece. The event features excerpts from the play, which combines historical and contemporary figures in a chaotic party setting, addressing themes like nuclear threat, absolutism, and the intoxication of power. The performance is a clever, timeless, and politically charged tragedy-comedy that reflects on human folly and societal issues. The event also explores how Rothenbühler adapted the work into dialect and modern context, and his approach to making it performable for the Luzern players.
