Description

Katerina Evangelatou, after the great success of "Faust" (2015-2016), returns to the Municipal Theater of Piraeus, directing the masterpiece of Georgiy Buchner "Woyzeck" with Giorgos Gallos in the homonymous role and a dynamic company of 10 actors.

Woyzeck is a work-phenomenon. Written in 1836/7 by a 23-year-old German writer who died before he was able to complete it. And yet this poetic masterpiece has influenced almost all of the later dramaturgy, from the expressionists and Brecht to Beckett, and from Gorky to Colts and Sara Kein. Behavior based the work on a well-known case of the era: Soldier Johan Christian Woyzeck in a jealousy crisis stabbed his mistress and was sentenced to death. Although he studies in depth the social, criminal and medical aspects of the case, Bewner overcomes the dark case of a repressed person and creates an existential tragedy that touches eternal questions about human dependence on social conditions beyond his control , social relations, but also the predetermined fate.
