Jenny Erpenbeck's Homecoming: An Evening Full of Memory, Sound, and German History

Name: Homecoming
Start: 2027-04-09T21:00:00+02:00
End: 2027-04-09T23:00:00+02:00
Location: Kulturforum Fürth

A House as a Memory of German History

With Homecoming, a live audio play enters the Kulturforum Fürth, bringing Jenny Erpenbeck's novel to the stage as a multifaceted sound art. The evening tells of a house by the Markish lake, of loss, memory, and the fault lines of an entire century. The official Fürth announcement describes a literary journey from the 1920s to the present, condensed in voices, sounds, and music.

Literature Becomes Theater Breath

Erpenbeck's material acts on stage like a seismic protocol of German history. The house becomes a silent witness, the characters bearers of time, expropriation, flight, and memory. It is precisely in the form of the live audio play that the tension, which the novel has generated on German stages for years, unfolds: concentrated, poetic, and with a dramatic density that demands and rewards orientation. Critics repeatedly highlight the challenge of adaptation, but also the special atmosphere created by the connection of language, sound, and scenic reduction.

Between Chronicle and Sound Space

The stage experience thrives on the fusion of acoustic precision and literary breadth. When memories appear as sounds and history becomes audible as a voice, a theater atmosphere emerges that does not rely on spectacle but on inner movement. This is precisely where the power of this production lies: the audience does not just listen, it follows the traces of loss, upheaval, and perseverance through a polyphonic listening space.

Why this Evening Resonates

Homecoming connects literature, acting art, and sound dramaturgy into a concentrated evening about home and loss, about ownership and deprivation, about the quiet scars of history. Those seeking theater with intellectual depth, atmospheric density, and historical weight will find an evening here that resonates long after. This live audio play presents itself as an intense cultural experience for all who love great narratives in an intimate format.
