Betrayed by his brother, Prospero, Duke of Milan, escapes to a remote island with his daughter. Years later, the political figures who once overthrew him are stranded on this island after a devastating storm. Can the old balance of power be restored now? And what if the storm hasn't abated, but is actually brewing?
Shakespeare's last play is about power and politics at all levels: top/bottom, Europe/Global South. And about the pursuit of justice. To explore the possibilities and contradictions of solidarity in times of political upheaval, Bachmann Prize winner Sharon Dodua Otoo expands the text with a previously untold critical perspective, challenging existing assumptions with empathy and humor. Dagmar Schlingmann stages one of her favorite authors at the end of her tenure at the State Theater. All of her productions are also about taking a clear stance in the face of adverse conditions.

"A man comes to Germany. One of those who come home and then don't come home after all, because there's no home for them anymore. And their home is then outside the door." Wolfgang Borchert uses simple words to describe the fate of Beckmann, a war veteran who no longer has a place to live. He visits his wife, who has found another partner; he goes to see his former colonel, who denies all responsibility; and he introduces himself to a cabaret director who finds his songs too dark. Wherever Beckmann turns, no one listens to him; he has been undermined by the war, his existence destroyed. He feels alone with his trauma, yet he is one of countless others – and it could have happened to anyone.

Outside the door

Count Orlok wants to buy a property in Wismar and in order to clarify the purchase agreement, the estate agent Knock sends his young employee Hutter to Transylvania. There he is received in Orlok's castle and bitten. Orlok sees a medallion with the portrait of Hutter's wife Ellen - and immediately signs the purchase agreement. He packs his travel coffins full of contaminated soil and sets off for Wismar. None of the sailors survive Orlok's passage on the ship, but plenty of rats do, bringing the plague to Wismar. While the city gradually becomes depopulated, Hutter's wife learns that only she - and only by sacrificing herself - can put an end to Orlok's haunting.

What makes us who we are? How did we get there? The young author Emel Aydoğdu writes for a young audience. She writes about life from her perspective and addresses the question of what language does to people, how people are shaped by society and how sometimes what is left unsaid weighs more heavily than what is said. Using a personal story, something bigger than one's own experience unfolds; written for a classroom, it also takes place there. Here, different native languages ​​come together and at the front stands a person who teaches, reports, represents something and discovers something for themselves. The writing and rehearsal process takes place together with the 9th grade of the Sally Perel Comprehensive School.
