You have found an interesting article explaining why producers in Brandenburg still put on Shakespeare's plays. In an email to your pen pal, outline the reasons each producer provides for staging Shakespeare. Darum spielen wir Shakespeare William Shakespeare, der vor vier Jahrhunderten starb, ist immer noch das Maß aller Dinge. Was macht sein Werk so brisant und aktuell, dass er immer noch der beliebteste Dramatiker ist? Die MAZ [Märkische Allgemeine Zeitung) hat sich unter vier Brandenburger Theatermachern umgehört. Karim Saab, 23. April 2016, Märkische Allgemeine [...] Mario Holetzeck, Schauspieldirektor am Staatstheater Cottbus: Shakespeare. Ein Star in ruheloser Zeit. Ein Genie? Das Wunder einer dauerhaften. Lebendigkeit? Shakespeare ist der Wahnsinn. Ist die Rache. Ist der Verrat. Der Mord. Ist die Spionage. Ist der Hass. Der Zweifler. Versachtung. Wut. Intrige. Die reine absolute Liebe. Er ist anders! Er stellt uns ständig vor Überraschungen. Wir können nicht aufhören, Neues in ihm zu entdecken, weil sein Drama uns immer wieder von einer neuen Seite her packt und uns dazu zwingt, nach anderen Antworten zu suchen. Wir tauchen in eine Welt der Vergangenheit ein und sind konfrontiert mit einer Welt der Gegenwart. Mit Shakespeare, der im 21. Jahrhundert angekommen ist. Obwohl sich sein 400. Todestag jährt, ist er aktueller denn je. Er hält uns einen Spiegel vor, in dem wir Eigenes wiedererkennen. Eine Shakespeare- Aufführung geht an keinem spurlos vorüber." [...] Tobias Weilemeyer, Intendant des Hans- Otto-Theaters in Potsdam: Shakespeare hat wie kein anderer das Theater geprägt: Ohne ihn kein Goethe, kein Schiller, kein Brecht. Schauen Sie in unseren On Spielplan, auch Huxleys „Schöne neue Welt" kommt nicht ohne Shakespeare aus. Wie kein anderer hat er poetisch, geistvoll und komplex die Abgründe des Menschen. beschrieben. Gnadenlos zeigt er das Ringen des Einzelnen um Glück und seine Verstrickung Machtmechanismen. Er zeigt Despoten im Aufstieg und Fall, menschliche Verkommenheit, schwache Helden, starke Frauen, dunkle Clowns. Mit seinen einzigartigen Beschreibungen der Liebe ist uns Shakespeare auch heute nah: Qual und Genuss, Begehren, Eifersucht und Hass- all diese Facetten hat er in seinen Stücken und Sonetten meisterhaft ausgeleuchtet. Schöner und drastischer hat das vielleicht keiner nach ihm geschafft."[...] 2. T Reinhard Simon, Intendant der Uckermärkischen Bühnen, Schwedt: „Die Texte William Shakespeares - zu denen ja nicht nur Theaterstücke gehören - sind nach wie vor von ungeheurer poetischer und rhetorischer Kraft. Insbesondere die Theaterstücke sind für ein breiteres Publikum geschrieben, das seine Kritik gewohnt war, sofort und unmissverständlich zum Ausdruck zu bringen. Die Tragödie birgt mitunter brachial humoristische Szenen, wie die Komödie tieftragische Momente enthält. Shakespeare gelingt es dadurch, jedem etwas zu bieten und dabei noch Figuren von großer Komplexität zu zeichnen, die in ihrer Zuspitzung auch für unsere Gegenwart noch interessant sind und Diskussionsstoff bieten. Dadurch bleiben seine Stücke in jeder Epoche aufs Neue prägnant und aktuel. Sie unterscheiden nicht, trennen nicht, sondern bilden zugespitzt Leben ab- in seiner ganzen komplexen Farbigkeit. Und sie rühren an unser Innerstes, denn dass es Shakespeare gelingt, nur mit Worten sämtliche Gefühle zu evozieren, ist der Kern seines Geheimnisses, denke ich." [...] hevorruffen vor dem geistigen Auge entstehen Igor Holland-Moritz, Dramaturg an der Neuen Bühne Senftenberg: 400 Jahre nach William Shakespeares Tod sind aus seiner Feder 38 Stücke und sechs Versdichtungen überliefert, darunter die berühmten 154 Sonette. Diese schiere Menge allein lässt schon ahnen: Man kommt einfach nicht an ihm vorbei. Shakespeare wurde in v über 100 Sprachen übersetzt schon sehr früh ins Deutsche und über die Jahre immer wieder neu - vom Romantiker Schlegel über Frank Günther und Thomas Brasch bis, jüngst sehr prominent, Feridun Zaimoglu. Es scheint, jede Zeit hat ihre Shakespeareübersetzung. Dabei ist der Dichter in seiner Beschreibung des Menschlichen zeitlos. Es bleibt wohl so, dass weiterhin unsere Geschichte schreibt.
