(Fruhlings Erwachen) by Frank Wedekind: translated from the German by Tom Osborn
A series of plays which have had a major influence on the development of the theatre during the past 100 years.
with Christopher Guard, John Moulder-Brown and Helen Worth
This work is one of the first plays of the modern movements, a key work of the naturalist school, that is also the precursor of German Expressionism and the principal inspiration of it. First produced in a modified version in 1906, 16 years after Wedekind began to write it, this play has had a tumultuous career in the hands of the censor.
The action takes place in and around a provincial town in Germany: spring-winter, 1892.
