Das neue Stück is a format, in a long-standing cooperation between the Staatstheater Karlsruhe and the HfG Karlsruhe, which deals with texts by contemporary authors. The students develop a staged reading that normally takes place in the Staatstheater's studio.
In the 2020 summer semester, the group developed a one-hour audio walk through Südstadt, which was thus able to do justice to the time - in the midst of the pandemic.
The visitors, who gathered at the Staatstheater, were given a map with marked stations, headphones, an MP3 player and a place to sit while they were on the move. The texts read by the actresses (Marie-Joelle Blazejewski
Lucie Emons), guided the participants audio-visually through the streets. The walk was complemented by various interventions: e.g. the distribution of yoghurts, posters of flats in the Markler*innen office, resting stations and a live moment with the actresses Lodi Doumit and Antonia Mohr in a vacant shop in Schützenstraße.
Content: "Frau Verschwindet (Versionen)" by Julia Haenni was published in 2019 by "Verlag der Autoren" in Frankfurt am Main.
A woman disappears from her flat. The door is open. Is her disappearance a coincidence, did the woman make the decision to leave her home on her own, did something happen...?
The author sketches different women's voices, who sometimes enter into dialogue with themselves, sometimes with each other. The themes of disappearance and the role of women in our society are central.
