Hello from a wet and windy Fort William!Originally posted by Caliban View Post
Lulu = Alban Berg. Wiki tells me that its libretto was adapted by Berg himself from Frank Wedekind's plays Erdgeist (Earth Spirit, 1895) and Die Büchse der Pandora (Pandora's Box, 1904). Berg first saw Die Büchse der Pandora in 1905 in a production by Karl Kraus.
...In addition to his writings, Kraus gave numerous highly influential public readings during his career - between 1892 and 1936 he put on approximately 700 one-man performances, reading from the dramas of Bertolt Brecht, Gerhart Hauptmann, Johann Nestroy, Goethe, and Shakespeare.
Then the trail runs dry. Unlike every other trail around here which is quagmired. Squelch squerch, Squelch squerch, squelch squerch...
