King Ubu # Am Königsweg
Alfred Jarry, Elfriede Jelinek
Guest performance Theater an der Ruhr
A hated king, a tweeting blind man who thinks he knows everything and steals the votes of the masses because he has none of his own. A show character who never shows his true colors. A money-grubbing ruler who has catapulted himself straight to heaven in a gilded get-up. It quickly becomes clear who Elfriede Jelinek is targeting in her new text.
