DRAUSSEN VOR DER TÜR

A modern classic

 

A man returns from captivity. 
Beckmann is his name. He returns in the hope of a new beginning. On his return, he meets one person after another. He sees many doors. He recognizes many of them. But one door after another closes. And in the end, he has to stay outside the doors. The deep, cold, dark water of the Elbe flows and waits. Beckmann returns from the war, without a first name and tormented by the question of responsibility.
The boundaries between reality and nightmare become blurred. Or has the nightmare become reality?

Written by Wolfgang Borchert in just eight days, the drama DRAUSSEN VOR DER TÜR was premiered in 1947, has since been reinterpreted many times and has been described as the "anti-war play par excellence". The author did not live to see its success, as he died one day before the premiere.

DRAUSSEN VOR DER TÜR depicts a timeless story of people returning from war, wounded and scarred in many ways.
This is a carousel of nightmares that keeps spinning. The carousel accelerates and the landscapes of fear, hope, the real and the fictional intermingle. The Elbe continues to chatter.

DRAUSSEN VOR DER TÜR is for all people aged 14 and above who continue to hope for peace. For all those who don't want to look away and want to try to live together with the wounded of the present.
