Philipp Mosetter: Tag der Hölle (Part I and II) - World Premiere! — Volksbühne im Großen Hirschgraben, Frankfurt

On October 17, Volksbühne im Großen Hirschgraben presents "Tag der Hölle" - from 18:00 to at least 21:00.

The first part, "Zur Hölle" (duration: 1 hour 13 minutes), follows Werner Peter, a minor poet, as he flees his hell and attempts to start a new life - in vain, as one might suspect. The second part, "Der letzte Tag" (approximately 1 hour), accompanies Werner Peter through his final day on earth. Between the two parts is a 42-minute intermission - time for cheese and wine, a phone call, or an email.

"Zur Hölle" had its German premiere at Volksbühne im Großen Hirschgraben two years ago. On October 17, "Der letzte Tag" now experiences its world premiere: Philipp Mosetter's metaphorical drama in 32 tableaus and several transitional scenes.

On stage (in alphabetical order):
Oskar Aichinger - composition, keyboards, and orchestra
Wolfram Berger - performing 84 roles (Part I) and a further 27 roles (Part II)
Philipp Mosetter - author of the drama and Werner Peter (the minor poet), in the second part also as a footnote

Tickets: "Zur Hölle" 27.00 € / "Der letzte Tag" 28.10 € / combination ticket 35.00 €. Discounts apply for friends, acquaintances, children, groups, couples, women, seniors, employees of German Federal Railways, the postal service, and the Bundeswehr, as well as holders of an annual zoo pass - in short: 25.00 € per person.

Warning: if more than 80 ticket orders are received, "Tag der Hölle" will have to be moved to the main stage for legal reasons.
