        Born in the R.A.F.

        by John von Düffel

        What happened to the daughters and sons of the members of the „revolutionary“ 1968’s generation? Born in the R.A.F. is a strange confession in the form of a monologue. The protagonist’s parents belong to the 68’s generation, the generation of Baader-Meinhof. The son tells the Chief Federal Prosecutor his story of a great re-education: Raised in the conspiracy of a world-revolution he mutated to a law-and-order-petty bourgeois. Born in the R.A.F. is a sarcastical, ironic, Monty-Python-like play with a serious message: the smallest known unity of terrorism is the family.

        In Zeiten des abnehmenden Lichts / In Times of Fading Light

        by Eugen Ruge

        An adaptation of the famous novel for the theatre In 2011-2012, the family saga In Times of Fading Light written by German Book Prize winner Eugen Ruge was leading the bestsellers lists. Only a few know that the novel has its roots in a former theatre play. The German Theater Berlin recognized in Ruge’s narrative style how much the characters are molded by his monologues. Therefore, Eugen Ruge worked again on his family story to adapt the novel into a play for the big stage. The theatrical dramatization opens a new view on the story with higher focus on the conflicts inside the family. The family Umnitzer who was scattered to the four winds during the Second World War meet again at the beginning of the Fifties in the new-built German Democratic Republic. Four generations of the family members look for their own way through life in the GDR and after the fall of Communism.
