BERLINER PORTRÄT GALERIE - GROSSE REGISSEURE. FOLGE 5: GEORGE TABORI

"Don't push the river, it flows by itself."

Perhaps it is precisely this effortlessness, which is reflected in George Tabori's words, that makes up a significant part of his charismatic charisma. He was greatly appreciated by many actors because of his pleasant way of working. Bodywork and Gestalt therapy were integral parts of the rehearsal process and opened up completely new realms of experience for those involved.

Born in Budapest, he traveled to all corners of the world, partly because he was Jewish. Wit and catastrophe are not mutually exclusive in Tabori's works; humor appears as a kind of survival strategy. A magician of the theater, a brilliant author and magical director. A philanthropist."
