"Fear" Play based on a novella by Stefan Zweig

In Stefan Zweig's “Angst” (Fear), married Irene falls into the clutches of a blackmailer after having an affair. Guilt turns into paralyzing fear—fear of discovery, of losing her family, of social decline. A gripping study of guilt, morality, and the destructive power of fear—intense, oppressive, and timelessly relevant.

In the production by Markus Plattner (director) and stage design (Karl Heinz Steck), Irene's inner turmoil becomes an atmospherically intense theatrical experience.
