Johan Simons, Frank Castorf, Dusan David Parizek and Ulrich Rasche – four solid directors with unequivocal writing, who shape the dramatic program of the Salzburg Festival this year. The beginning is July 22nd, the indestructible "Everyman" on the Cathedral Square.

"So, a completely immobile Jedermann, white, it was not long ago," FAZ judged last year on the reconstitution of the traditional play with Tobias Moretti and "Poverty" Stefanie Reinsperger , while the NZZ "an almost quiet, courageously secular" Kammerspiel located. As unhappy as the criticism was in their badessment of the attempt to exorcise the Catholic, unctuous conversion room, it was agreed that the director-Einspringer had not made a big move. For this year not only new music (Wolfgang Mitterer replaces Matthias Rüegg), but also the noticeable change of certain scenes as well as the announced table society.

A week later, the Landestheater presents a piece that is part of the motto of the festival: Pbadion, Ecstasy, Pbadion "matches.The tragedy of Heinrich von Kleist" Penthesilea "presents itself in the direction of Johan Simons but d & # 39: an unusual way: as a piece of two people.Everything is focused on Penthesilea and Achilles.Exquisite is the cast: The title role is played by Sandra Hüller ("Toni Erdmann"), Achilles is Jens Harzer, two years ago an impressive Caliban in the "storm" on Pernerinsel

Frank Castorf is allowed to let off steam this year.The former director of Volksbühne devotes himself to the novel "Hunger" by Knut Hamsun and adds to this pbadion story and suffering two years later, the sequel published "Mysteries." There will be a meeting with Sophie Rois from August 4.

Settling the Comedian

Samuel Finzi and Mavie Hörbiger are the protagonists of the second at two in the program. Dusan David Parizek has taken David Grossman's novel "Come on a horse in the bar". A stand-up comedian begins to settle accounts with himself and gets a performance out of control. First: August 8 in the "republic".

A staggering promises to be the latest production of the act at the premiere on August 18. Ulrich Rasche takes the oldest drama of humanity and shows "The Persians" of Aeschylus. Two large discs in continuous rotation to push the Landestheater to its limits and make vibrate the horrors of the war
