The Schauspiel Frankfurt opens its new season with a multi-faceted program. On September 21, the curtain will rise on a humorous production of Mateja Koležnik's "The Miser" by Molière, which brings the topical subject of avarice and money to the stage in a captivating way. This will be followed by the highly anticipated premiere of Virginia Woolf's "Orlando," a play that challenges seemingly immovable boundaries of gender, power and status. Beginning in October, audiences can look forward to a spectacular performance of "Dracula," with director Johanna Wehner's take on the iconic vampire character. November and December bring "Momo," a fantastic family play by Michael Ende about storytelling, friendship and courage, suitable for ages 8 and up.
In the Kammerspiele, Anja Hilling's latest production, "Mascha K. (Tourist Status)," is dedicated to the Jewish exiled lyricist Mascha Kaléko. In December then follows "Sun/Air" by Elfriede Jelinek, a multilayered and at the same time entertaining text, which deals with the climate collapse.
The Schauspiel Frankfurt is the largest spoken theater in the Rhine-Main region and enjoys nationwide recognition as an outstanding stage in Germany. Renowned directors present both classical works and contemporary drama in the four venues - Schauspielhaus, Kammerspiele, Box and Bockenheimer Depot.
