Theatre about school days at the former 10th Polytechnic Secondary School in Frankfurt (Oder)
The personal memories of Frankfurt residents are brought to life in the schoolyard, corridors and classrooms. The audience is guided from place to place and gains a deep insight into the world of adolescents before the fall of the Berlin Wall.
In addition to the play there will be a light installation in the schoolyard and photo projections on the wall of the school building, as a collective photo album of the city of Frankfurt (Oder). Participants from Frankfurt (Oder) are involved in the performance.
The theatre project is already the tenth joint summer production with the Kleist Forum.
