Milo Rau will show and discuss excerpts of his Global Realism projects like Congo Tribunal, New Gospel, Antigone in the Amazon and Orestes in Mosul, followed by a talk with Frank Hentschker.

Rau asks: What would Jesus preach in the 21st century? Who would his disciples be? What would a political Antigone for the 21st century, together with indigenous people, activists and actors from Brazil and Europe look like?  Can theatre be a real stage for a tribune about the brutal 20 year civil war in Congo? Can a Greek tragedy really help heal a burnt city like Mosul in Iraq? What can and does a theatre play leave behind--what impact can it have in the real world?
