September 2001Die Rückkehr der Iphigenie und andere Monologe
by Jannis Ritsos, Asteris Kutulas, Jannis Ritsos, Asteris Kutulas, Ina Kutulas, Asteris Kutulas, Ina Kutulas
Aus dem facettenreichen Werk des Griechen Jannis Ritsos (1909 – 1990) werden drei Prosamonologe vorgestellt, die sich antiken Stoffen zuwenden und doch nicht historisierend sind. Die Zeiten verschwimmen, wenn die altbekannten Figuren Agamemnon, Iphigenie und Chrysothemis in heutiger Gestalt wiederkehren, von Ereignissen einer zeitlosen Gegenwart sprechen. In Haltung, Gestus und Erleben gleichen sie ganz ihren antiken Vorbildern, und doch zeigen die Antiken-Monologe (entstanden zwischen 1967 und 1972) einen klaren politischen Bezug. Die Maskierung, das Hineinschlüpfen in andere, zumal mythologische Gestalten, war während der Diktatur der Militär-Junta für den Dichter Ritsos die einzige Möglichkeit, Dinge auszusprechen, die er sonst nicht aussprechen zu können glaubte. Die Ausgabe wird durch farbige Zeichnungen auf Stein aus dem bildnerischen Werk Jannis Ritsos' ergänztzt.

Inheritance (Play)
by David Mulwa
The action starts at pre-colonial Africa in the Kutula Colony. King Kotula XV is a benevolent traditional ruler who forsakes technological sophistication in favour of social cohesion and meaningful development for all his fellow citizens. However, the Queen's representatives - Thorne Macay and Bishop Henninger - do not like King Kutula's leadership style especially because the British empire does not stand to gain in this arrangement Soon they hatch plans for the murder of the king in the hands of the heartless and power-thirsty son. Lacuna Kasoo. Kotula Colony Is later transformed into a republic with the leader, Lakuna Kasoo, and his cronies salivating to enrich themselves at the expense of national development. They grab whatever comes their way: land, money, power and life. They kill at will and are seen as irreparable moral reprobates. Lakuna Kasoo gets more and more dictatorial and isolated and he is finally deposed in a bloodless civil revolution. There is change and hope as Princess Sangoi, the new popular leader, summarises the new spirit of rebirth: let it never be said that our new world was built on the madness of the old.'
