In this episode, we discuss the Schaubühne Berlin's recorded productions of Hamlet and Richard III, both directed by Thomas Ostermeier and starring Lars Eidinger. The productions are in German with English subtitles, and were recently streamed on the Schaubühne's website as part of their quarantine programming. The productions are modern dress and in German, with modernized German dialogue, though the English subtitles reproduce Shakespeare's text (rather than translating the modern German back into English). We discuss Ostermeier's interpretations of the two plays, Eidinger's performances, the problematic misogyny in both, the excitement of the improvisations, the costumes, and much more. Excerpts of the productions are available on YouTube though not always with English subtitles!For detailed show notes, visit: :http://21stfolio.com/2020/04/20/ep-29-hamlet-richard-iii-schaubuhneHost: Alex Heeney, Editor-in-Chief at Seventh Row (@bwestcineaste)Guests: Noemi Berkowitz, actor, director, and contributing writer at Seventh Row (@noemiola)Mary Angela Rowe, Editor-at-Large at Seventh Row (@lapsedvictorian)Editor: Edward von AderkisFind 21st Folio online at http://21stfolio.comFollow us on Twitter @21stFolioThis podcast is a subsidiary of Seventh Row, an online publication dedicated to interdisciplinary film criticism.
