Buddenbrooks – Eine Familiensaga
In the organizer's words:
Fascinating characters and dramatic conflicts dominate the eventful story of the Buddenbrook family, which is about love and longing, but also about responsibility and duties within a merchant dynasty.
The different siblings and company heirs Christian, Thomas and Antonie, known as Tony, become increasingly estranged from the ideal of the efficient merchant, in which only those transactions are made that allow one to "sleep peacefully at night". They find it increasingly difficult to maintain the family's success and prosperity. Tony neither succeeds in fitting into the conservative construct of a pragmatic marriage, nor do the unequal Buddenbrook brothers find their roles. Christian is a hapless hallodri and hypochondriac and is far from being of any use to the family business. Although Thomas proves to be an ambitious merchant's son who follows in his father's footsteps and takes over the business, he increasingly exploits himself and ultimately fails. The decline of the family and the Buddenbrook company seems unstoppable.
Thomas Mann's famous novel from 1901 comes to the Ohnsorg stage just in time for the 150th anniversary of his birth and 70th anniversary of his death in John von Düffel's congenial theater version, for the first time in Low German.
