The Broken Jug Is Created: An Exclusive Rehearsal Visit with Dramaturgical Depth
An hour closely connected to the stage experience: At the Stadttheater Fürth, the rehearsal stage opens up for Heinrich von Kleist's judicial comedy The Broken Jug. Dramaturg Anna-Lena Kühner precisely navigates through themes, directorial decisions, and the journey from text to scene – a rare glimpse into dramaturgy, acting, and directing.
Process of Staging: From Words to a Living Stage Event
You will experience the ensemble in scenic work: the timing of dialogues, character guidance, transitions, the breath of language. How does light mark the search for truth, how does direction balance comedy and abyss? The rehearsal room becomes a workshop where timing, pauses, acoustics, and perspectives are sharpened.
Kleist Today: Power, Lies, and the Difficult Path to Truth
The production (directed by Sebastian Sommer, set by Robin Metzer, costumes by Wicke Naujoks) sharpens the conflicts of the source: abuse of power, concealment, the audience reaction between laughter and unease. Judge Adam fumbles with excuses while the village becomes the stage for an entire social order – precise, pointed, contemporary.
Sensuous Theater Atmosphere: Stage, Costume, Light
Rough wood, marked playing areas, fabrics with patina: The set design sets clear lines, giving meaning to every prop. Costumes sharpen social hierarchies, light modulates the mood between courtroom darkness and enlightening glow. Thus, a theater atmosphere is created in which comedy works as a revealing machine.
Value for Visitors: Dialogue with Dramaturgy and Performance Included
After the insights, artistic decisions are contextualized in conversation: history of staging, acting traditions, text variants. A category 2 ticket for the performance on April 12 is included in the course fee – the perfect transition from rehearsal to premiere phase.

Barrier-free access to the parterre, designated wheelchair spaces, induction system in the parterre (rows 1–10). Comfortable parking in the FLAIR parking garage; public transport connection via VGN. Mandatory coat check for larger bags ensures a quiet atmosphere.
