In the organizer's words:

Julius Caesar

By William Shakespeare

About the play

Kill the dictator, free the state from the tyrant? - The political assassination has a long history, both literary and social. In our times, when democratic structures are suddenly in danger, this question is more topical than ever. How far do we want to go to protect values that have long been taken for granted and which, quite unquestionably, must be defended?
Yet, when a ruler falls, there are profiteers and these are usually those closest to power. Shakespeare's drama shows us different types of people in power that we can recognize as today's politicians: Populists, hangers-on, autocrats. The theme also reflects different attitudes to current political and social events. It therefore lends itself to being explored by a group of amateurs.

THE KINDRED SPIRITS

The group, which calls itself Die ArtVerwandten, has been working together for almost three years now. What drives them is the desire to put socially relevant issues on stage using voice, body, language and play.
With passion, humor and music, the group (formerly "Der Chor") throws itself into the game:
Doris Wind, Pia Schreiber, Julia Odermatt, Michael Csont, Sandra Luther, Larissa Kroll, Karin Dörpmund, Fabi Heuermann, Dine Urbons, Nastja Roeseler, Stephanie Seumer, Anja Hölscher, Conny Korbel and Martin Dreifke. Direction: Petra-Janina Schultz.
