Metropoltheater München

An ecstatic, unnamed place, on the eve of an impending war. For the candle maker Michel, his wife Therese, and their 15-year-old son Adie, every day is a struggle for survival. The state subjugates its citizens; without money, one is worthless, and those who do not stand on the right side of politics and religion have already lost.

When the family learns that the government intends to evict them from their side of the river in a large-scale resettlement project to extract mineral resources, Adie takes drastic measures to defend himself against the pervasive oppression, shaking the world to its core. Everyone threatens to finally lose their grip.

In the first part of her trilogy, Zinnie Harris examines, in her characteristically sparse yet powerful language, the effects of war, terror, and oppression on a society.

How does one live and survive when communication is no longer possible, human emotions are a sign of weakness, and power and money are the only valid currency? What does the constant feeling of helplessness and inequality do to a person? And is it possible to retain faith and humanity despite all experienced injustices?

Part 2 and Part 3 of the trilogy, “Midwinter” and “Autumn,” will be staged later in the season.

"Something is happening here, but you don’t know what it is."

So it probably felt for the parents at the aborted school concert in Hibbing 1959, the guests at Cafe Wha? 1961, the visitors of the Newport Folk Festival 1965, and many who have ever experienced the musical phenomenon Bob Dylan live.

Antonia Lunemann and Daniel Holzberg take us on a kaleidoscopic journey of impressions: songs, lyrics, prophecies, anecdotes, and statements of an iconic artist who has captivated his fans as often as he has eluded their expectations.

"Don't Think Twice" takes us from Dylan's beginnings in folk music through the sudden reversal (perhaps also return) to rock 'n' roll to his status as one of the most versatile songwriters of our time. And it addresses the most important questions: What influence did he have at a very young age on the music of the 60s, what did he mean to many people from that era, and what significance was imposed on him - spokesperson of a generation, prophet, threat to society, organic farmer?

All "truths" about Bob Dylan will be viewed from different perspectives on this evening and remain elastic - after Oscar and Nobel Prize in Literature, the legendary musician certainly wins the prize of elusive quality.

What is tangible, however, is Antonia's and Daniel's love for Dylan's vividly powerful lyrics and catchy songs, where it's not about copying, but rather about an intellectual attempt to connect with this extraordinary phenomenon of the music business.

A total of 20 songs (from over 800 possible!) will be played by the two on guitar, bass, piano, cajon, and drums; and they will also express the world with Dylan-esque disillusionment on the harmonica, while bowing to his inspirations, companions, and critics, including Joan Baez, Pete Seeger, Allen Ginsberg, Mr. Jones, and of course, Woody Guthrie.

That Hasnain Kazim, born in Oldenburg and son of Indian-Pakistani immigrants, receives hate-filled reader mail as a journalist is not surprising – especially since he writes about sensitive topics and has a foreign-sounding name. However, his reaction to these submissions is surprising. Instead of simply clicking away the outpourings of angry senders, he responds quickly and humorously, resulting in enlightening dialogues time and again.

With excerpts from this correspondence, which he shares among other places on Facebook, Hasnain Kazim has written himself a devoted fan base. In his book, which is both entertaining and clever, he shows why one should not leave the hate and nonsense that lands in their inbox uncommented. (Source: PENGUIN Verlag)

At the Metropoltheater, Katharina Müller-Elmau/Lucca Züchner, Thorsten Krohn, Thomas Schweiberer, and Bijan Zamani read and perform texts, chat sequences, and email exchanges from Kazim's bestseller book.

The Earth "has little people" - and because they behave idiotically and thoughtlessly, she is sentenced to destruction by the cosmic court. The comet Konrad is tasked with colliding with the aimless planet. Only the scholar Professor Guck recognizes the dimension of the impending danger and tries to awaken his contemporaries in order to avert the looming catastrophe.

But he encounters arrogance and ignorance everywhere: politicians who expand their power, speculators who increase their profits, and journalists who want to enlarge their reach; along with an amusement-happy global population that does not want to acknowledge all the insights and simply wants to forget all the complicated connections cheerfully.

Guck's adventures in trying to save a reluctant world are so humorous, absurd, and insightful that our present poses the great question about the future of humanity anew - with a laughter that stands up to all despair. And who knows, maybe it will still be possible just before the apocalypse to divert Konrad from his fatal flight path …

Wise, satirical, and always profoundly human - this is how the Austrian writer Jura Soyfer appeared, who was born in 1912 in Kharkiv, Ukraine, and died in the German concentration camp Buchenwald in 1939. For the legendary Viennese cabaret "ABC," he wrote the prophetic one-act play "Weltuntergang" in 1936 - which is now presented here with a lot of music in a coffee house that means the world.

"Something is happening here, but you don’t know what it is."

So it probably felt for the parents at the aborted school concert in Hibbing 1959, the guests at Cafe Wha? 1961, the visitors of the Newport Folk Festival 1965, and many who have ever experienced the musical phenomenon Bob Dylan live.

Antonia Lunemann and Daniel Holzberg take us on a kaleidoscopic journey of impressions: songs, lyrics, prophecies, anecdotes, and statements of an iconic artist who has captivated his fans as often as he has eluded their expectations.

"Don't Think Twice" takes us from Dylan's beginnings in folk music through the sudden reversal (perhaps also return) to rock 'n' roll to his status as one of the most versatile songwriters of our time. And it addresses the most important questions: What influence did he have at a very young age on the music of the 60s, what did he mean to many people from that era, and what significance was imposed on him - spokesperson of a generation, prophet, threat to society, organic farmer?

All "truths" about Bob Dylan will be viewed from different perspectives on this evening and remain elastic - after Oscar and Nobel Prize in Literature, the legendary musician certainly wins the prize of elusive quality.

What is tangible, however, is Antonia's and Daniel's love for Dylan's vividly powerful lyrics and catchy songs, where it's not about copying, but rather about an intellectual attempt to connect with this extraordinary phenomenon of the music business.

A total of 20 songs (from over 800 possible!) will be played by the two on guitar, bass, piano, cajon, and drums; and they will also express the world with Dylan-esque disillusionment on the harmonica, while bowing to his inspirations, companions, and critics, including Joan Baez, Pete Seeger, Allen Ginsberg, Mr. Jones, and of course, Woody Guthrie.

Basically, it should of course be called: A bow to the phenomenon Leonard Cohen, the Canadian singer-songwriter legend, who was so much more: a writer, poet, painter...

Where do you end up when you embark on a search for this phenomenon?

The Humility "There's a crack in everything, that's how the light gets in" – a quote that summarizes Cohen well. Darkness and light. An artist who struggles with depression throughout his life and yet never loses his sense of humor, neither in his lyrics nor on stage. Always at peace with himself, humble. Even in his last interviews, he talks about how he cannot sing and never could. You can search for a long time and find no scandals triggered by him – very untypical for a rock star of his caliber. Although “folk star” would probably be the more accurate description. Where does this humility come from, and how does it influence his work?

The Language One cannot speak of Cohen without mentioning the language and the significance it held for him. He repeatedly states, as he was initially an author, that language is the driving force for him, and poetry is his great theme – which is why there is a story behind almost every Cohen song. Not a single song is incidental, none is written without great significance. On the contrary, isn't there always a (often personal) story behind it or a philosophical engagement?

The Women In the press, Cohen is described as “obsessed with them.” He repeatedly dedicates songs to the women in his life - who are these people that inspired, supported, and promoted him, and what are their shared stories?

“A Thousand Kisses Deep” explores these questions based on biographical milestones, anecdotes, texts, and – of course – approximately 15 songs. Understanding the phenomenon of Cohen in its entirety is hardly possible, yet one can hope for an approximation.

By and with Kathrin von Steinburg and Jakob Tögel

"The two have not simply reproduced the warmth and spirit (...) without kitsch, but they find their own sound. Especially their duet singing gives a hint of how a depth of a thousand kisses might feel. After 90 minutes, no one really wants to leave..." (Abendzeitung)

“A Thousand Kisses Deep” explores these questions based on biographical milestones, anecdotes, texts, and – of course – approximately 15 songs. Understanding the phenomenon of Cohen in its entirety is hardly possible, yet one can hope for an approximation.

By and with Kathrin von Steinburg and Jakob Tögel

"The two have not simply reproduced the warmth and spirit (...) without kitsch, but they find their own sound. Especially their duet singing gives a hint of how a depth of a thousand kisses might feel. After 90 minutes, no one really wants to leave..." (Abendzeitung)

The Earth "has little people" - and because they behave idiotically and thoughtlessly, she is sentenced to destruction by the cosmic court. The comet Konrad is tasked with colliding with the aimless planet. Only the scholar Professor Guck recognizes the dimension of the impending danger and tries to awaken his contemporaries in order to avert the looming catastrophe.

But he encounters arrogance and ignorance everywhere: politicians who expand their power, speculators who increase their profits, and journalists who want to enlarge their reach; along with an amusement-happy global population that does not want to acknowledge all the insights and simply wants to forget all the complicated connections cheerfully.

Guck's adventures in trying to save a reluctant world are so humorous, absurd, and insightful that our present poses the great question about the future of humanity anew - with a laughter that stands up to all despair. And who knows, maybe it will still be possible just before the apocalypse to divert Konrad from his fatal flight path …

Wise, satirical, and always profoundly human - this is how the Austrian writer Jura Soyfer appeared, who was born in 1912 in Kharkiv, Ukraine, and died in the German concentration camp Buchenwald in 1939. For the legendary Viennese cabaret "ABC," he wrote the prophetic one-act play "Weltuntergang" in 1936 - which is now presented here with a lot of music in a coffee house that means the world.

The full life and work of Presley are difficult to grasp. Sebastian Griegel and Andreas Lenz von Ungern-Sternberg do not even try, but instead approach the icon through pictures, anecdotes, and of course, songs.

Starting with the nervous teenager who knows everything, sings everything, and at 19 years old records his first demo record for $8.25 at Sam Phillips' Memphis Recording Service, impressing the assistant so much that she notes down his name and address. A year later, now already with Scotty Moore and Bill Black by his side, he meets Sam Phillips personally in the studio, who is so taken with him that he records a jam session of the trio and sends it to the most well-known DJ in the city, who turns the record into a regional hit: with "That's All Right," the rockabilly sound is born, and Elvis's career begins. It takes him from club performances, regional concerts, record recordings, sold-out tours, and appearances in the most famous American TV shows to the top of the charts, into the hearts of all teenagers, and ultimately to the film business, all in just three years.

But Sebastian and Andreas also recount Presley’s stationing in Germany, his first contact there with amphetamines, his return to the USA, the sensational restart in new attire and new style, and his troubled time in Las Vegas.

"Burning Love" - these are 25 songs from Presley’s life, each with its own story and significance for the career of this musical legend.

"Something is happening here, but you don’t know what it is."

So it probably felt for the parents at the aborted school concert in Hibbing 1959, the guests at Cafe Wha? 1961, the visitors of the Newport Folk Festival 1965, and many who have ever experienced the musical phenomenon Bob Dylan live.

Antonia Lunemann and Daniel Holzberg take us on a kaleidoscopic journey of impressions: songs, lyrics, prophecies, anecdotes, and statements of an iconic artist who has captivated his fans as often as he has eluded their expectations.

"Don't Think Twice" takes us from Dylan's beginnings in folk music through the sudden reversal (perhaps also return) to rock 'n' roll to his status as one of the most versatile songwriters of our time. And it addresses the most important questions: What influence did he have at a very young age on the music of the 60s, what did he mean to many people from that era, and what significance was imposed on him - spokesperson of a generation, prophet, threat to society, organic farmer?

All "truths" about Bob Dylan will be viewed from different perspectives on this evening and remain elastic - after Oscar and Nobel Prize in Literature, the legendary musician certainly wins the prize of elusive quality.

What is tangible, however, is Antonia's and Daniel's love for Dylan's vividly powerful lyrics and catchy songs, where it's not about copying, but rather about an intellectual attempt to connect with this extraordinary phenomenon of the music business.

A total of 20 songs (from over 800 possible!) will be played by the two on guitar, bass, piano, cajon, and drums; and they will also express the world with Dylan-esque disillusionment on the harmonica, while bowing to his inspirations, companions, and critics, including Joan Baez, Pete Seeger, Allen Ginsberg, Mr. Jones, and of course, Woody Guthrie.
