An Evening Full of Wit, Contradiction, and Marriage Chaos at T-Werk
With It Was the Lark, the New Globe Theater Potsdam brings a sparkling comedy by Ephraim Kishon to the stage at T-Werk. On August 15, 2026, at 8:00 PM, the audience can expect a theatrical experience blending a famous love story, biting humor, and lively music. The production combines classic characters with a pointed, contemporary staging and starts exactly where tragedy turns into comedy.
Kishon's Comedy Meets Potsdam Stage Energy
The play brings Romeo and Juliet out of myth and shows them in the midst of the tumultuous everyday life of a long-standing marriage. From the former love drama emerges an evening full of wordplay, absurd situations, and insightful observations about relationships, role models, and the ordinary chaos of living together. The New Globe Theater is known for its playful ensemble work, clear target audience engagement, and strong audience atmosphere. This production is no exception.
