The Lord Mayor of Frankfurt (Oder) René Wilke and the Vice President Prof. Dr. Christoph Brömmelmeyer as well as the Vice President Janine Nuyken welcome you to the Kleist Forum in Frankfurt (Oder).

Get to know your future fellow students, your university and your city in a convivial atmosphere with music and free beer!

After the Get-together at the Kleistforum, we would like to end the first evening with a quiet round of Box Run (Kastenlauf). For this purpose, we cordially invite you to go to Kaufland after the event in the Kleistforum (we will also pick you up in front of it) and get a few crates of beer (with or without alcohol, depending on your preference) in groups.

Afterwards we will meet in front of the AM at 8 pm. From there, the groups will race against each other to various stations (under the direction of ourselves, of course). More details will follow in the evening.

We are looking forward to seeing you!

Extra Zero

(Kleistförderpreisträgerstück 2023)

The place: a psychiatric clinic. The main characters: people with eating disorders. The plot: routine and everyday hospital life. Patients who are constantly fighting: against their own bodies, against the bodies of others, against the ideals they are confronted with. The play shows a detailed image of a disease of civilisation. Powerfully and with black humour, the author relentlessly describes the complexity of the disease and the difficult path to recovery and self-acceptance. Director Blanka Rádóczy uses this with great sensitivity as the basis for one of her typical, choreographic productions.

Tickets: 25 € / 12.50 € (Students) or 5 € Last-Minute-Ticket for Students

Being Nietzsche

An immersive 360° virtual reality film and live performance with puppetry

In the first part of "Being Nietzsche", the audience experiences themselves in the role of Friedrich Nietzsche with the help of the latest virtual reality glasses. The philosopher is at the mercy of his ambitious sister beyond death. It is she who creates a myth through manipulation. VR technology offers viewers the unique experience of feeling part of the scene.

This will be followed at 8 pm by a live performance in which the actress Judith Rosmair and the puppeteer Suse Wächter will approach the "Nietzsche myth" in new, unexpected ways.

Tickets: 12 € / 6 € (Students) or 5 € Last-Minute-Ticket for Students

Kleist und andere Monster

Reading performance by and with: Mathieu & Elena Carrière and Judith Rosmair

Violence, terror and war have not only shaped the life and work of Heinrich von Kleist, but are still the subject of literary creation today.

The first part of the performance deals with a text by Said Ould Khelifa and Mathieu Carrière, "The Hunt", which is based on original negotiation protocols of an entrenched terrorist with a secret service policeman. This exciting psychogram will see the light of day for the first time at the Kleist Festival.

Part two is a Kleistian mirror in which Penthesilea, Prothoe, Achilles, Kohlhaas, Hermann, the poet himself and not least the audience can find themselves.
