Dramaturge

"The poodle didn't notice anything when he jumped in, but things are different now; the devil can't leave the house."
"Here you come and ask what idea I was trying to embody in my Faust. As if I knew it myself and could articulate it!" — What Goethe himself couldn't or wouldn't explain, Barbara Bürk and Clemens Sienknecht will now attempt. With the subtitle "albeit with a different text and also a different melody," the two have already transformed several great classics of world literature into their very own format: condensed in content, humorously deconstructed, and lovingly set to music. In Hanover, after "Madame Bovary" (2016), the duo will now tackle Goethe's heavyweight Faust: a fateful pact with the devil, the Gretchen question, and the search for the moment of absolute happiness.
