Woyzeck

by Georg Büchner with songs by Tom Waits and Kathleen Brennan, text version by Ann-Christin Rommen and Wolfgang Wiens

Premiere on 12.1. 2018, Graz University of the Arts

“An exhausting struggle for survival in a deeply oppressive society. A struggle between those to whom life owes nothing and those to whom it owes everything. Woyzeck is about madness and obsessions, about children and murder - all things that touch us. The play is wild and horny and exciting and stimulates the imagination. It makes you fear for the characters and think about your own life. I guess that's all you can ask of a play.”
(Tom Waits)
