Performing in
This new work by the Italian director Silvia Costa combines two plays by Marguerite Duras, the grande dame of French literature. While in »La Musica«, on the evening after their divorce, a couple take a realistic look back at the life they shared and imagine what might have happened if they had stayed together, »The English Lover« presents the nightmare version of the end of a relationship, in which violence that has been smouldering for years erupts.
La Musica ‒ Zwischen Ihr und Ihm (La Musica ‒ Between Her and Him)
Rainald Goetz, the remarkable multi award-winning author, has entrusted resident director Elsa-Sophie Jach with the world premiere of his latest theatre text. The text is a bold mix of genres: a diary and requiem interwoven with scenes from a crazy screenplay project with Helmut Dietl and Franz Xaver Kroetz, to whom Goetz has dedicated the play. And in it he also pays his respects to his native Bavaria, both to the city of Munich and the foothills of the Alps. Playful, poetic, profound, absolutely undramatic – and, of course, a work of genius.
Lapidarium
A longtime favourite of Munich audiences, the exceptional actor Manfred Zapatka, appears as one of William Shakespeare’s great title characters: King Lear. The play is a character study of an ageing, unpredictable patriarch and tyrant.
König Lear (King Lear)
Oedipus, the lead candidate of a new political movement, is as good as assured of election victory. But why are the circumstances of his predecessor’s fatal road traffic accident classified? And what is the fake news regarding his origins about? Oedipus starts to investigate – despite all the warnings. As in his updating of Schnitzler’s »The Doctor«, Robert Icke has radically translated a theatre classic into the present. Icke’s »Oedipus« looks behind the myth and is both a family tragedy and a political thriller.
Ödipus (Oedipus)
Residenztheater and LMU Munich enter the second season of their co-operation with the question »How do people protect themselves from themselves?«. Understanding science and theatre as a continuum of approaches to the world means researching on stage and discovering storytelling within the sciences.
Wie schützt der Mensch sich vor sich selbst? (How can humans protect themselves from themselves?)
