Overview
- The play opened on November 23 at the Schaubühne in Berlin, with Richter directing his own text.
- The story centers on Hannah Zabrisky, an accomplished performer in her fifties who refuses to rehearse, using that impasse to probe age and gender dynamics in theatre.
- Jule Böwe portrays the title character within an ensemble framed as seven people searching for a play and for themselves.
- Berlin reviews note the production’s meta-theatrical design and report at least one particularly standout performance.
- A WELT critic describes the piece as capturing a sense of industry bewilderment and observed a premiere audience that appeared puzzled at times.
