Mülheim Drama Award - Mülheim's theater competition kicks off with "Baracke".
On Saturday (May 4), the Mülheim Theatre Days will start the contest for the distinguished prize of modern drama with the fresh piece of Rainald Goetz, a Büchner Prize winner, "Baracke." Seven new shows of modern German-language rock and 5 for children have been considered. Both contests are funded with 15,000 euros apiece.
The initial performance, which premiered at the Deutsches Theater Berlin, demonstrates a family as the foundation of violence and hostility. The NSU abominations reverberate in the circumference of the play. "There were more plays deserving of an invitation than the seven that could be nominated," said the speaker for the selection panel for the grown-up plays, theater savant Franz Wille, amid the presentation of the nominations. All the considered shows will be displayed during the Theater Days (May 4-25) in Mülheim.
The other selected plays cover "Juices" (Ewe Benbenek, Nationaltheater Mannheim), "Nora oder Wie man das Herrenhaus kompostiert" (Sivan Ben Yishai, Schauspiel Hannover), "forecast:ödipus" (Thomas Köck, Schauspiel Stuttgart), "The Silence" (Falk Richter, Schaubühne am Lehniner Platz, Berlin), "Laios" (Roland Schimmelpfennig, Anthropolis II, Deutsches Schauspielhaus Hamburg) and "Antrag auf größtmögliche Entfernung von Gewalt" (Felicia Zeller, Theater Oberhausen).
The Mülheim Drama Prize is esteemed as one of the main awards in the German theater scene. The focus is on the play scripts versus their production. The winners are determined by public jury gatherings.
