Drama

after William Shakespeare

The Merchant of Venice

Klaus Adam, Cologne
Directed by Dani Levy, with Henry Hübchen, Hannelore Elsner and others
Klaus Adam's one-man show gets to the root of Shakespeare's play. He comes quickly to the central theme of the play and captivates audiences with a strong interplay between realistic description of events and through imaginative and subjective associations to modern life. Shakespeare's Merchant is transferred to our time, and Adam's interpretation shows vividly that the play is just as relevant today as it was back in Shakespeare's day.
