Was Das Nashorn Sah, Als Es Auf Die Andere Seite Des Zauns Schaute

About

This revival at Theater Regensburg’s Junges Theater stages Jens Raschke’s play about zoo animals living next to a concentration camp. Directed by Oda Zuschneid, the production uses a distinctive design concept: Nele Bronner’s set, costumes, and illustrations translate the text’s black-and-white photo world into a tangible stage environment. Jan Preissler provides music and sound design as an atmospheric layer, complemented by Michel Koch’s lighting within a monochrome palette. Conceived for audiences aged 10 and up, the production addresses the Holocaust in an age-appropriate manner. A post-performance discussion follows most performances, underlining the production’s educational framing and engagement with its challenging subject matter.
