Der zerbrochne Krug. Tambora – Premiere

The jug is gone. Broken - but by whom? Kleist's comedy about the guilty village magistrate Adam conceals a highly serious dynamic: blackmail and sexual coercion are combined in a system of power imbalances and fear - against the gleaming backdrop of colonial expansionism. Who has an interest in the truth not coming to light - and for what reason? Is it really just a jug that has been broken, or is there not a much greater damage being negotiated in this courtroom play?
