Alice – Game for Your Life at the Stadttheater Fürth: Great Stage Art Conquers Fürth

Music as a Lifesaver: Alice – Game for Your Life in Fürth

A stage experience that touches the soul: At the Stadttheater Fürth, the extraordinary life story of the Jewish pianist Alice Herz‑Sommer unfolds. Acting, piano sound, and precise dramaturgy merge into an evening that makes the culture of remembrance sensibly tangible.

The Stage Breathes History

An empty stage, a piano, an actress – from this strict setting, an intense theater space emerges. In François Camus's production, acting and piano combine into a gripping form: Natalie O’Hara embodies more than 20 roles, switches perspectives, and sketches biography and contemporary history with a clear directorial signature. The audience experiences how music becomes an anchor for survival in the midst of the Theresienstadt ghetto.

Sound Colors Between Light and Darkness

From Bach to Gershwin, from Chopin études to Beethoven sonatas: The live played works open emotional spaces, carry texts, and rhythmize memories. The lighting design models delicate transitions – from the cool gray of threat to warm islands of hope. The theater atmosphere remains focused; each strike on the keys reflects an audience reaction between breathlessness and liberation.

Dramaturgy of Resilience

Author Kim Langner weaves documentary elements, research in Prague, Theresienstadt, and Tel Aviv, as well as voices from Alice's environment into a biographical score. The production relies on imagination rather than props: Images arise in the mind, carried by language, rhythm, and precise playing posture. From this emerges an evening about the power of art – against despair, for humanity.
