„Ruth“

theter ensemble

She campaigned for women’s rights, was a photographer, author and director, wanted to capture reality on stage and confronted society with her communist and political ideas. She even went to the front lines of the Spanish Civil War after Brecht sent her to Spain to represent him at a literary congress – Ruth Berlau was so much more than Brecht’s lover, confidant and stage photographer. In a scenic collage, the theter ensemble is dedicated to the life, love and suffering of the impressive Ruth Berlau – is it still relevant? How can a woman make herself heard in the theatre?
