Crowd Gathered Near Elizabethkirche
Get ready for a captivating cultural extravaganza in Marburg! In the heart of the city, on the historic Firmaneiplatz, the Hessian State Theatre Marburg (HLTM) is bringing "Jedermann" to life as an open-air production in mid-June. This performance is usually reserved for Salzburg, so it's a fantastic opportunity to witness this extraordinary event right here in Marburg.
Director Carola Unser-Leichtweiß shares her thoughts on the production: "Jedermann is a thought-provoking and powerful play. Essentially, we watch a person live, love, and forget, oblivious to their responsibilities. Death suddenly knocks at the door, and life takes a whole new perspective." The HLTM has been recognized with the prestigious German Theatre Prize 2024. More details can be found here.
