Gudrun Ensslin's radicalisation process with the RAF in the 1970s is still controversially discussed and reflected upon today due to its political and social impact.
In her novel ‘Erzählung zur Sache’ (2023), Stephanie Bart revives this highly explosive period of West German history from Gudrun Ensslin's perspective, providing a powerful template for an intense evening of theatre, not least through the density and rhythm of the text.
Together with actress Susanne Jansen, the directing team has taken on the exciting task of bringing Gudrun Ensslin's permanent state of combat and emergency, as well as the constant urgency of the moment, to life on stage.
