Brian Friel: Father and Sons
"Fathers", this is the generation of liberal aristocrats of the nineteenth century who see the misery of serfs but are unable to radical consequences. Their "sons," rebellious students who call themselves nihilists, on the other hand, question everything: "The world must be recreated."
Brian Friel, the most important Irish playwright of the present, has transformed the novel by I. Turgenev into a social piece that shows how the generational conflict has remained current over all times.

Christopher Hampton: Dangerous Lovings
The famous letter novel by Choderlos de Laclos, which has drawn a glaring customs of the fashionable society of the Ancien régime, has been transformed into a brilliant conversation piece by Christopher Hampton.
From New York to London, at the Royal Shakespear Company, the piece has been played with overwhelming success and awarded the most coveted theatrical awards.

Bodo Kirchhoff: Die verdammte Marie
A little-successful playwright has snapped up the address of a money lender on a reception. There he becomes involuntary witness to a negotiation; it's about tough politics, about a business. With borrowed money, the city wants to build a brothel high-rise. The young playwright, it seems, is on the trail of a scandal story.

Bernard-Marie Koltès: In the solitude of the cotton fields
Dealers and victims, they exist as it were the rules of the movement of goods. Whoever says what he wants first has lost. The weapons of the two men are words, creating an artfully knotted language braid full of allusions and duplications.

Felix Mitterer: Stigma
A Passion calls Mitterer the 17 stations of his piece. The peasant maid Moi suffers from desperate love for Jesus his passion. The villagers worship her as a saint, she fights until her death against the inhuman and narrow-minded attitude of the clerical community.

Marco Antonio de la Parra: Solo for Carlos and Sigmund
Carlos and Sigmund are two exhibitionists like from the picture book, who make each other dispute, the most distinguished girls' high school in Santiago. Anyway, it seems. But is Carlos really an exhibitionist, or is he a spy who is supposed to give Sigmund out and for whom? And why can both memorize the names of the ministers who are currently attending high school? Or are they just normal crazy?
