Wort-Reich - the 2025/26 reading series
Organiser Theater Ulm:
Discover classics of literary history as well as as yet unknown texts with "Wort-Reich - die Lesereihe".
Once a month, we encourage you to (re)discover classics of literary history or as yet unknown texts with word art! The musically accompanied excursions by members of the ensemble into the world of poetry include provocative, amusing and moving pieces. One thing is always certain: the selected texts are worth reading and listening to.
Tickets costing €10 are available from the theater box office and the Aegis bookshop.
Kleist's world - outrageous events
Wednesday, February 11, 2026, 7 p.m., Aegis Café
Heinrich von Kleist never shied away from exploring the abysmal nature of human feelings and actions - no wonder his works caused offense, including "Die Marquise von O." In 1808, the novella was considered scandalous when it was first published. Critics warned "Frauenzimmer" in particular against this work, as it could not be read "without blushing".
The "outrageous incident" during the war that Kleist describes is unfortunately still a bitter reality 200 years later, and the question he poses is frighteningly timeless: How does a woman deal with rape? How does her environment? Wort-reich combines this literary masterpiece with anecdotes by the ingenious storyteller, on the occasion of the current Kleist production "The Schroffenstein Family" at the theater.
Together with Dr. Christian Katzschmann, members of the Ulm Theatre ensemble will read.
