The Broken Jug (Der zerbrochne Krug)

Preview Season 2022/23
How much time (Wieviel Zeit) - this is the title of the 22/23 season. Because in our "acceleration society" (Hartmut Rosa), time is a scarce resource. Not because less of it is available, but because more and more has to take place in it. Corona has not changed this logic of growth. At the same time, however, the concept of growth itself is up for discussion. To ask for How much time, therefore, also means to ask for deadlines that still remain for the transformations. And to look for where time escapes the calculations: in waste, intoxication and celebration.

Statement
Future of the Gogol Center
We were dismayed to learn that the Moscow Gogol Center, the avant-garde and socio-political theater house and important cultural venue with which we have collaborated in recent years on our co-production Decamerone, among others, is closing. The contracts of the artistic directors, which end on July 4, have not been renewed and the theater has no precise information about the future. The center's former director Kirill Serebrennikov called the removal of directors Alexey Agranovich and Alexey Kabeshev the "death of the Gogol Center."
Review Autor:innentheatertage 2022
Three world premieres, nine Berlin premieres, a quarter of a century of new drama: From June 8 to 18, 2022, all stages of the Deutsches Theater Berlin were bustling with activity. We accompanied the 25th edition of the Autor:innentheatertage with a festival blog (only in German):
"Do you still feel anything?"
Photoblog about the Autor:innentheatertage by Arno Declair
We condemn Russia's belligerent attack on Ukraine. The Deutsches Theater Berlin expresses its solidarity with the people in Ukraine and is thinking of friends, artists and colleagues.
The Deutsches Theater wants to maintain and strengthen its artistic ties with the people of Ukraine and other parts of Eastern Europe. It is more important than ever to promote the international community and to stand up together for a peaceful and open society. First solidarity actions have been implemented, more are planned.

Statement by the "Initiative GG 5.3 Weltoffenheit"
As representatives of public cultural and research institutions in Germany, we share a mandate from the state to promote arts and culture, historical research and democratic education and to make these accessible to the general public. Toward this end, we rely on a public sphere that welcomes controversial debates in accordance with the norms of the German constitution. At the center of our initiative lies a common struggle against antisemitism, racism, right-wing extremism and any form of violent religious fundamentalism. Intendant Ulrich Khuon is one of the signatories of the statement of this initiative.
