"GRETCHEN 89 FF." is a hilarious look through the keyhole at the rehearsal stages of our theaters. For it is there - even before the audience gets to see the finished production - that an age-old battle over the sovereignty of interpretation of a play is decided: actors vs. directors vs. playwrights. The subject of today's debate: Goethe's "Faust I", Gretchen scene page 89 ff., verses 2752 to 2804. Brigitte Peters and Dirk Audehm enter the ring and will "crack" this scene with all the means of their acting profession, whether as a director with a screaming impulse, as an actress with a thirst for knowledge, as a rehearsal-preventing anecdote teller, as an all-knowing diva or whoever else dares to try. One thing is guaranteed: you've never seen the box scene like this before!
