Jedermann by Hugo von Hofmannsthal - Open Air 2026

Hugo von Hofmannsthal's "Jedermann - The Play of the Death of the Rich Man" will be performed in 2026 as an open-air production on the castle square in front of Schloss Ehrenburg in Coburg. The production is directed by Nicolai Tegeler.

The play combines theatre, music, light, and sound design into a comprehensive staging that merges traditional elements with multimedia design. The production explores themes of wealth, transience, and the meaning of life - subjects that have always been central to Hofmannsthal's text.

"Jedermann is not a play about death - it is a play about life." - Nicolai Tegeler, producer

The cast includes Julian Weigend, Ralph Morgenstern, Michaela Schaffrath, Markus Majowski, Tine Wittler, Alma Rehberg, Maya Forster, and the accordion duo con:trust.
