#DIEWELLE2024
In the organizer's words:
By Jochen Strauch. Based on the novel "The Wave" by Morton Rhue and the short story "The Third Wave" by Ron Jones.
The Nazi era is over. Today the world is enlightened and safe. Isn't that right? In history class, a school class discusses these and other questions when the Second World War is on the curriculum. The pupils agree that there could no longer be a dictatorship in Germany today. To prove how easily people can be seduced, manipulated and instrumentalized, the teacher begins an experiment. The class is to work together as a group through discipline and community. As "#DIEWELLE2024", the pupils delve deeper and deeper into the experiment. But then everything gets out of control.
The bestseller "The Wave", published in 1981, is based on a real experiment. It was conducted by teacher Ron Jones at a Californian high school in 1967. In view of current political developments in Germany, the story is frighteningly topical: according to the study "Youth in Germany 2024", the AfD is the strongest party among 14 to 29-year-olds. We are staging "#DIEWELLE2024" in the modern text version of the GRIPS Theater.
