In the organizer's words:
Communist Magazines
The ’68ers had just turned the young Federal Republic upside down. Free love, long hair, and colorful drugs took over the cityscape, and avant-garde art and the working class seemed closer than ever. Composers of the new music of the 1970s suddenly turned their attention from experimental sounds to agitprop; just as tonality had been overturned, so too must the world finally be overthrown. And so today’s veteran Nicolaus A. Huber toured through the trials and tribulations of Western democracy with a wild theater troupe for the German Communist Party: a bus full of workers’ songs, grotesque lyrics, and all sorts of circus acts—onward to the world revolution!
Half a century later, all that remains of that militant propaganda is a long-out-of-print record and loose manuscripts in the vaults of state archives. In his play development at the TiF – Theater im Fridericianum, director Moritz Warnecke makes his debut at the Staatstheater Kassel and sheds light on the fossilized relics in the repository of uprisings that never were.
