Brecht-Tage 2026: »Brecht im Planetarium. Konstellationen von Sternen und Menschen«

In the organizer's words:

Lecture by Sebastian Kirsch

The planetarium serves Brecht as a model for a new type of drama. Movements of the stars and movements of people appear equally as constellations; "without stop and in great motion" are the stars in the sky and the people on earth. In a collage-like manner, the lecture traces some of the relationships between astronomical and theatrical demonstration. Does Brecht's planetarium stage open up ways of "living from the forces of the cosmos" (Walter Benjamin)? And where do these paths lead to today's age of the "planetary"?
