In 1977, theatre audiences heard for the very first time the astonishing opening line of Heiner Müller’s Hamletmachine: ‘I was Hamlet. I stood at the coast and spoke with the surf BLABLA, behind me the ruins of Europe.’ Nearly half a century later, how should we approach the complex work of the German poet and playwright? In this masterclass, director Igor Gandra and scholar Miguel Ramalhete Gomes come together to discuss the waves and ruins that permeate the author’s universe, based on experiences resulting from the creation of the show Vidro Pantera – Estilhaços de Heiner Müller (Glass Panther – Shards of Heiner Müller). Suitable for both beginners and experts, curious minds and enthusiasts.
