Autumn is here

Dear audience, it's going to be cold at the weekend. We will still play outside and make sure you stay warm with cushions, extra blankets and hot drinks. We will provide additional warming elements in the stands and in the tent. We are looking forward to your visit and to ending GEHEIMNIS 1 together.

However, if it rains so much that we actually have to cancel the performance, tickets can either be exchanged for another day or converted into a credit note on the day of the event.

Reviews for GEHEIMNIS 1

Ödipus:

‘The enthusiastic performers are perfectly supported by the harmonious and precise lighting direction. Everything together results in a well-rounded evening of theatre that can be enjoyed and understood even by those who neither knew the material beforehand nor attended one of the numerous supporting events’  Coolibri

Bock:

‘[I]t will be light and really funny. At least on the surface. Because the scenes from a man's life, which the four players in ‘Bock’ perform with great enthusiasm, have a lasting effect and make both men and women reflect on the ideas and images we harbour about being a man and male sexuality.’ WAZ

 

‘I was a guest at your theatre for the first time and am still moved today.’

Franziska R., Essen

Ödipus

"Grandiose stage design in the beautiful Raffelberg Park. The visual setting is fascinating." (WDR)

Bock (UA)

"Glossy Pain's ‘Bock’ is very rich in input, challenges the audience, breaks taboos and is a lot of fun at the same time."
(Die deutsche Bühne)

S wie Schädel

"For their Weimar premiere, Mattes and Ciulli have turned to one of the best-known contemporary writers: ‘Scenic reflection of an intangible world on texts by Navid Kermani’ is what they call their evening, an improvisation on the present that is more than just a reading and something other than a classic stage evening with defined roles and dialogue, and yet in these seventy minutes or so, everything that makes theatre is on offer: texts, voices, bodies, a few props and a whole lot of magic."

Sandra Kegel, FAZ
