Familienvorstellung - Der Untergang des Hauses Usher

In the organizer's words:

Theater Aachen is a house of art, social debate, encounters and much more. Is it also a haunted house? After all, its column-lined walls are now 200 years old. Wilke Weermann will trace the terrible and beautiful stories that they might tell. The author and director is known for atmospherically dense theater evenings, quoting genres such as science fiction and horror and countering them with subtle, enigmatic humor. He received the Kurt Hübner Directing Prize 2023 for his play "Unheim", which deals with the debate about the lack of living space as a futuristic, comedic ghost story. At Theater Aachen, Weermann is devoting himself to the great American master of horror literature Edgar Allan Poe and combining his most exciting stories into a new horror story about dark family secrets and repressed guilt.
