Rarely has the hopelessness of Büchner’s Woyzeck been so movingly portrayed as it is in this production. Ulrich Rasche’s sets conjure up a series of breathtaking images, each of them reflecting the situation onstage. This production opens up a direct route to the narrative that is hard to resist.

“Büchner’s ‘Woyzeck’ has never been seen like this. Gutted and yet filled. Abstract and at the same time of concentrated force.” - NZZ

“The evening offers a strong spectacle.” - Nachtkritik.de

“A brave, uncompromising evening” - FAZ

“As long as technology and play go together as well as before with Ulrich Rasche, the force of language and fate that this kind of overwhelming theatre creates has something fascinating about this urge to create a total work of art. Often touching, too.” - Süddeutsche Zeitung
