Chronicles of Mars comes to Theater Basel this month. Performances begin on 16 October.
Foreboding and poetic, 'The Martian Chronicles' tells of humanity's fragile existence and its ambivalent relationship with nature. The science fiction classic was published in 1950 and deals with the colonisation of Mars and observes how humans are capable of the best and the worst. Author Ray Bradbury was regarded as the poet of the rocket age. He achieved world fame with 'Fahrenheit 451' at the latest.
The celebrated French theatre-maker Philippe Quesne creates theatre with subtle humour, great metaphors and magical images. For him, the stage is both a place of refuge and a playground. In front of a huge green screen, he lets a small community explore episodes from Ray Bradbury's groundbreaking universe.
Before the premiere at 18:00, the director of the Schauspielhaus will be awarded the prestigious Chevalier de l'Ordre des Arts et des Lettres by the French Ministry of Culture for her commitment to francophone culture.
