Solaris

About

“Zugang Bühne »Wir schauen.«” is an outreach initiative by Staatstheater Braunschweig for people whose first or family language is not German, and their allies. It offers a safe space for community, participation, and a new way to experience theatre through guided visits, introductions, and post-show discussions. On this date, the group attends the production of “Solaris,” directed by Alexandra Holtsch. The staging transforms Stanisław Lem’s philosophical sci‑fi classic into an intimate space journey on the Aquarium stage, with retrofuturistic apparatuses referencing the novel’s 1961 origins and a projection window that suggests the dark infinity of the ocean. Content note: the production explicitly addresses themes of violence and suicide.
