Max Horkheimer dachte in den 1930er- und 40er-Jahren intensiv über den Kapitalismus nach, aus dem sich der Faschismus entwickeln konnte. In seinem kurzen Text „Die Rackets und der Geist“, der eigentlich der Aufschlag für ein größeres Forschungsprogramm werden sollte, setzt er sich mit Banden- bzw. Clan-Strukturen auseinander, die so dominant werden können, dass sie alles beherrschen und letztlich sowohl den marktwirtschaftlichen Liberalismus wie auch das Recht außer Kraft setzen. Wenn wir heute die Herrschaftsstrukturen in Russland, Ungarn oder zunehmend auch in den USA betrachten, scheint Horkheimers Charakterisierung der Racket-Herrschaft wieder zuzutreffen. Allerdings birgt dieser Begriff auch Probleme, da er oftmals unscharf bleibt. Zugleich will Horkheimer die Herrschaft des Rackets als eine grundsätzliche Eigenschaft von Herrschaft betrachten, die nicht nur unter einem Monopolkapitalismus zum Vorschein tritt. In der neuen Folge von „Wohlstand für Alle“ sprechen Ole Nymoen und Wolfgang M. Schmitt über die Rackets der Vergangenheit und Gegenwart.

Elizabeth A. Davis is currently gracing the Broadway stage as Thomas Jefferson in “1776”, where she has the unique opportunity to showcase her actual violin skills at the same time. She talks about what it's like performing eight shows a week while pregnant, and the financial and societal expectations that come with it. Elizabeth's love for music started at a very early age, sharing that she started playing an instrument with a butter box with a ruler in it when she was three years old. She reflects on how music was an important part of her family's life, and why she played not because she had an inkling it would be her trajectory but for the discipline of it. Playing as Thomas Jefferson, she shares that the pieces that she's playing on stage were pieces that Jefferson himself played, how she auditioned and how they were particular about casting actors who can play instruments very well, and why she considers "1776" a true musical theatre. She admits that singing on stage still terrifies her, and while she thought she wasn't a good enough violinist or a vocalist to major in them, she knew that she was a storyteller and got her degrees in classical theatre performance instead. As a storyteller, Elizabeth reflects on why the act of acting is a total defiance of death, why she aims to live her life as a thank you, and why failure is your friend and something that is not to be feared. Elizabeth A. Davis is a multi-talented, multi-hyphenate actress who received a Tony Award nomination for originating the role of Reza in the Broadway production of "Once". She has over 30 Off-Broadway credits, including "The Resistible Rise of Arturo Ui", "Women on Fire: Stories from the Frontlines", "Zorba", "Rain", "Allegro", "The Caucasian Chalk Circle", and "The 39 Steps". She's appeared in several TV shows such as "Fringe", "Blue Bloods", “The Jim Gaffigan Show”, and "Law & Order: Special Victims Unit". She has also written original musicals and short plays, and sung on Ben Platt's album, "Sing to Me Instead". Elizabeth is playing Thomas Jefferson in Broadway's "1776", where she sings and plays the violin on stage.

Eugen Berthold Friedrich Brecht, (born Feb. 10, 1898, Augsburg, Ger.—died Aug. 14, 1956, East Berlin, E.Ger.), was a German playwright and poet. He studied medicine at Munich (1917–21) before writing his first plays, including Baal (1922). Other plays followed, including A Man's a Man (1926), as well as a considerable body of poetry. With the composer Kurt Weill he wrote the satirical musicals The Threepenny Opera (1928; film, 1931), which gained him a wide audience, and The Rise and Fall of the City of Mahagonny (1930). In these years he became a Marxist and developed his theory of epic theatre. With the rise of the Nazis he went into exile, first in Scandinavia (1933–41), then in the U.S., where he wrote his major essays and the plays Mother Courage and Her Children (1941), The Life of Galileo (1943), The Good Woman of Sichuan (1943), and The Caucasian Chalk Circle (1948). Harassed for his politics, in 1949 he returned to East Germany, where he established the Berliner Ensemble theatre troupe and staged his own plays, including The Resistible Rise of Arturo Ui (1957). He outlined his theory of drama in A Little Organum for the Theatre (1949).From https://www.britannica.com/summary/Bertolt-Brecht.

George Kapiniaris is one of Australia's best loved comedy, music and TV stars - having had an incredible impact on Australian popular culture over the last thirty five years. His claim to fame was his starring role in the hugely popular stage show 'Wogs Out Of Work'. Since then, the Australian public has continued to see him use his Greek heritage as inspiration for future roles and performances. George developed his popular style of ethnic comedy at Rusden College in 1985. Straight away he was labelled as a pioneer of Ethnic Humour in Australia. We all loved him as DJ in 'The Flying Doctors' and who could forget his starring role as the manic waiter Memo in TV's 'Acropolis Now' from 1989 to 1992 (a show which he co-produced & co-created). Since 1992 George has also been the front man of his 70's cover band 'The Flares'.

The second episode of Seven Stages featuring multi-award winning lighting designer Paule Constable What was the first show you ever saw? Your biggest theatre regret? And which production would you choose to watch on a loop for eternity? These questions and more make up Seven Stages, the new podcast from The Stage, sponsored by Audible. In 2005 Paule Constable was the first woman to win an Olivier Award for lighting design. She has since won three more Oliviers, along with two Tonys and three ABTT Knight of Illumination awards. In her exclusive Seven Stages interview, she reminisces about how she first stumbled across lighting design. She tells host Tim Bano how she got her first lighting job when a follow spot operator friend fell madly in love and ran away to Spain. She took the friend's job at the Hackney Empire, caught the lighting bug and worked with the company on club events during the acid-house rave scene. Constable shared her lighting debut with actors David Tennant and Ashley Jensen, in their performance debuts, in The Resistible Rise of Arturo Ui with 7:84 Theatre Company in Scotland. She has since gone on to light some of the most iconic shows in theatre including Warhorse, The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time and Les Misérables. Listen below to hear the full interview. Every fortnight, you can join Tim Bano for illuminating, intimate conversations with influential performers and creatives who have lived their lives in theatre. Seven Stages podcast, sponsored by Audible, is available anywhere you find your podcasts including Apple Podcasts, Spotify and the link below. Paule Constable's interview follows legendary actor Ian McKellen.
“ Me gustaría ser sabio también. Los viejos libros explican la sabiduría: apartarse de las luchas del mundo y transcurrir sin inquietudes nuestro breve tiempo. Librarse de la violencia. Dar bien por mal, no satisfacer los deseos y hasta olvidarlos: Tal es la sabiduría. Pero yo no puedo hacer nada de esto; verdaderamente, vivo en tiempos sombríos”. ( A los tiempos futuros, 1.938) El futuro rebelde Bertolt Brecht nace el 10 de Febrero de 1.898 en Augsburgo, una ciudad provinciana de Baviera, en el seno de una familia acomodada. Aunque el sur de Alemania es predominantemente católico, cursa la educación primaria en una escuela protestante. En 1.917 tiene que acabar el bachillerato de forma provisional, ya que la primera guerra mundial, en su penúltimo año, marcaba drásticamente el orden del día. En Múnich se matrícula para estudiar Medicina, no muy convencido, pero al año siguiente lo llaman a filas como auxiliar sanitario en un hospital militar. Si bien Brecht participaba del entusiasmo patriótico por la guerra con poemas de alabanza al emperador, ahora, con la experiencia de los mutilados de guerra, compone en 1.919 una balada que enseguida llamaría la atención de jueces y fiscales por un acto considerado de alta traición, la provocadora y satírica “Leyenda del soldado muerto”, donde una comisión médica militar desentierra con una pala bendecida a un soldado, medio podrido ya, para declararle de nuevo apto para el servicio y reenviarlo al frente como carne de cañón. Tal fue el impacto de estos versos que, en 1.923, el emergente partido nacionalsocialista colocaría este texto y a su joven autor entre los más odiados de su “Lista negra” y posteriormente serviría al gobierno de Hitler, en 1.933, como justificación para retirarle la ciudadanía alemana. Con los años veinte Bertolt Brecht empieza su andadura por las ciudades de Alemania. Primero vive en Munich, donde en 1.922, estrena “Tambores en la noche”, que se convierte en una de las obras más representadas en la República de Weimar, y por la cual le sería concedido el prestigioso premio Kleist. También le atrae la efervescente ciudad de Berlín donde reside en 1.924; esta era, junto a Moscú y Nueva York, la capital de las vanguardias artísticas y el escenario del empobrecimiento de las masas debido al paro y a la galopante inflación producto de un capitalismo descontrolado. En la capital despliega su talento creador en todos los géneros literarios. Trabaja tanto en la radio como en el cine, publica revistas literarias, y compone canciones propagandísticas para el Frente Unitario de los Trabajadores. Culmina esa etapa berlinesa con el éxito avasallador de su “Ópera de cuatro cuartos", estrenada en 1.928, con música del genial Kurt Weill. Dicha etapa finaliza bruscamente poco después con el hundimiento de todo el país en el Tercer Reich. El 28 de Febrero de 1.933, el día después del incendio del Reichstag, Bertolt Brecht y los suyos emprenden el camino del exilio a través de Praga, Viena, Zúrich, París, Dinamarca, Suecia, Finlandia y Moscú para llegar en 1.941, finalmente, a Estados Unidos. Dejando a un lado su colaboración con Fritz Lang, como guionista, no consigue vender su talento a las productoras de Hollywood, mientras que en la neutral Suiza se estrenan sus grandes obras teatrales como “Madre coraje” o “La vida de Galilei”. En 1.947 recibe una invitación para declarar ante en Comité de Actividades Antiamericanas. A la pregunta sobre si había escrito obras revolucionarias responde, astutamente, que sí porque su intención revolucionaria era derrocar al gobierno de Adolf Hitler exactamente igual que habían hecho los soldados norteamericanos. Ese mismo año regresa Brecht a Europa, y después de haber conseguido la nacionalidad austríaca en 1.950, acaba instalándose en Berlín Este, la capital de la República Democrática Alemana. Sus últimos años los dedicó casi por completo a la puesta en práctica de su concepción del teatro épico realizando las funciones de director del Berliner Ensemble fundado por él y su esposa, Helene Weigel, y llevando a escena sus propias obras y las adaptaciones de otros autores dramáticos. En 1.955, un año antes de su muerte, no duda en aceptar el Premio Stalin de la Paz, en Moscú, pese a que su convivencia con el régimen comunista no había estado exenta de conflictos, como se ve con toda claridad en su reacción a la revuelta de los obreros berlineses del 17 de Junio de 1.953, con el poema, evidentemente impublicable “La solución”: “Tras el alzamiento del 17 de Junio – el secretario de la Unión de escritores – mandó repartir panfletos en la Avenida Stalin – en los que se leía que el pueblo – había perdido la confianza del gobierno – y que sólo redoblando el trabajo – podría reconquistarla. - ¿Pero no sería más simple – que el gobierno disolviera al pueblo – y eligiera otro?”. Resulta difícil encajar a Brecht en las corrientes literarias de su época. El creó su propio estilo transformando la fisonomía poética y teatral de Europa: un tono nuevo, una nueva melodía, una nueva manera de ver. Su gran oponente, Thomas Mann, reconoció inmediatamente la valía del autor bávaro señalando que la diferencia entre su generación y la suya era mínima. Pero Brecht, el rebelde antiburgués, no estaba de acuerdo en absoluto con esa afirmación y respondió con un ataque frontal a la comparación de Mann: “ En una disputa eventual entre un carruaje y un automóvil, sería el carruaje, evidentemente, quién consideraría mínima esa diferencia”. Toda la fuerza innovadora de Bertolt Brecht se pone de manifiesto en “La ópera de cuatro cuartos”. Brecht y Weill consiguen un montaje de estilos que combina en una comedia picaresca tanto formas triviales como cultas, música jazz y tango, cabaret y música de baile, ópera y habaneras, entretenimiento puro y crítica social. Esta obra no ha perdido ni un ápice de su viveza y ha sido interpretada desde sus comienzos por cantantes tan dispares como Louis Armstrong, Ella Fitzgerald, Frank Sinatra o Sting. La paradoja de esta ópera antiburguesa consiste precisamente en el éxito que obtuvo entre el propio público burgués al que Brecht pretendía censurar. A pesar de su ideología Brecht no siente ningún rubor por su éxito y aplica todos los trucos de la mercadotecnia para vender su obra y sacar provecho de su interpretación en todos los formatos artísticos. Declara: “mi nombre es una marca. Y quién use esa marca, que pague”. Ya en su madurez, entre los años 1.938 y 1.948 - es decir, hasta su regreso del exilio - realiza sus últimas grandes producciones dramáticas, que inaugura con la obra en la que mejor se refleja su condición de exiliado y de oponente al poder: “La vida de Galilei” escrita en 1.938 y estrenada en 1.943 en Zúrich. Otras obras destacables y relacionadas con la guerra y la corrupción moral que conlleva son “Madre Coraje” (1.939); “La buena persona de Sezuan” (1.940); “La irresistible ascensión de Arturo Ui” (1.941); “Schwejk en la segunda guerra mundial” (1.944) y, finalmente, “El círculo de tiza caucasiano” de 1.945. En los últimos años de su vida Bertolt Brecht se dedica casi por completo a poner en práctica su concepción teatral sin dejar de trabajar en ningún momento en la lírica. Compone el último ciclo de poemas cuyo título alude al lugar de su retiro en el campo prusiano: “Las elegías de Buckow” que, con formas sucintas recuerdan al haiku japonés y que, ciertamente vuelven a poner de manifiesto el desacuerdo del ya agotado rebelde con el régimen del socialismo real, pero que también expresan de manera certera su condición humana como por ejemplo el poema titulado “El humo”: “La casita entre árboles junto el lago / del tejado un hilo de humo. / si faltase / qué desolación / casa, árboles y lago”. Al bajar el telón de su teatro del Berliner Ensemble, los espectadores podían ver el dibujo de la famosa paloma de Pablo Picasso que Bertolt Brecht denominaba “ la combativa paloma de la paz de mi hermano Picasso”. Incansables renovadores del arte, los dos nunca dejaron de producir. Su gran capacidad para la autoironía se expresa bien en este diálogo del relato “ El esfuerzo de los mejores”: “ ¿ En qué trabaja usted ? - le preguntaron al señor Keuner, y él respondió: hago grandes esfuerzos preparando mi próximo error”
Hugo Weaving, Bolude Watson, Ben Lawrence, Andrew Luri and Face2Face host David Peck talk about their new film, Hearts and Bones, PTSD, relationships and hope, the power of community, the image and why finding our way home matters. Trailer Synopsis: War photographer, Daniel Fisher has returned home to the news of his partner’s pregnancy. Determined not let fatherhood alter his way of life, he begins preparations for an upcoming exhibition and his next overseas assignment. However, as the birth of his child draws near he struggles to keep his rising anxiety hidden. Meanwhile, South Sudanese refugee, Sebastian Aman has created a safe life in Australia with his wife and child. His peaceful life is disturbed when Dan’s exhibition threatens to display photographs of a massacre that occurred in Sebastian’s home village, 15 years earlier. When Sebastian approaches Dan with an appeal to not display any images of the massacre, an unlikely friendship develops between the men. Bonded by their shared trauma, Sebastian introduces Dan to members of a community choir. These survivors of war offer Dan an escape from the anxieties of imminent fatherhood, much to the frustration of his wife. When Sebastian uncovers among Dan’s photographic archive an image of his daughter, thought to have died in war, the men set about finding her. Amid the search for the young girl, Dan unearths disturbing details surrounding Sebastian’s past and the startling revelations threaten to destroy both families.

Phil Rouse decides to introduce his production of The Resistible Rise of Arturo Ui with a very peculiar sight: some slides of Elizabethan text hover above our very skilled ensemble as they are all club dancing to ‘Turn Down for What.’ It’s one of those audacious mixes of the highbrow classical and the lowbrow modern that the theatre world can never get enough of. Arturo Ui (played here by George Banders), the fictional Chicagoan crime lord, is of course Bertolt Brecht’s parodic and blatantly allegorical version of Adolf Hitler, rendered comprehensible for an American audience in 1941. Since the play took 22 years to make it to Broadway, it has only ever been performed in front of already well-versed audiences, and never as an introductory education on the history of Nazi Germany. Before they’ve even sat down, this 2016 Australian audience will already hate the infamous dictator just as much as the play’s 1963 American audience would have, but their prior knowledge of Brecht and Epic theatre will be less certain. In this production, Rouse bombards the audience with countless lines of text for the same purpose that Brecht once did: to give the audience all the facts they need to follow the allegory and understand his message, without being “distracted” by the fictional story he is telling. In contemporary theatre making this is known as heavy-handedness, but in the 1920s the idea of using theatre to shamelessly recruit people as political activists was a novel and exciting one. However, even today Rouse gets away with it by embracing this style of alienating the audience from the pathos of the story, and by having his own anti-right wing political agenda to parade around. The text on the screen and a handful of throwaway lines make it abundantly clear that Donald Trump is the politician he is truly taking aim at, with the original Hitler allegory itself becoming an allegory for a much more contemporary issue. There is also another, much more subtle comparison made between the Great Depression and the Global Financial Crisis, which interestingly is pulled off without the assistance of the fact slides. However, there are times when the three story levels, one literal and two allegorical, feel like they are about to crumble in and collapse on one another. It was also a questionable choice in the otherwise sound set design by Martelle Hunt to put the screen so high above the actors. Much of the opening dance sequence and character introductions will likely go unseen by audience members who are reading the opening text, and likewise, many important pieces of text shown throughout the production will go unread since there is rarely anything to direct people’s attention all the way up there. This is why Brecht would project his text at the back of the stage, so that it was always in view. Also, despite all the text, the self-aware jokes and the intentional breaking of character, there is one Brechtian technique that Rouse uses only very sparingly: bright lighting. There is a brief moment where the entire theatre is strongly illuminated and an awkward false curtain call plays out, but, for the most part, Rob Sowinski and Bryn Cullen’s lighting design is surprisingly traditional, putting the audience at a very comfortable distance and ultimately making the viewing experience too passive for this sort of material. Part of the intention of a show like this is to disorientate the audience, to pull them out of the story and keep the focus on the message, but until the very end of the play, the message within the message tends to make the space outside the story just as murky as the story itself. Fortunately though, each time both the narrative and its social significance become unstable, there are always the characters to fall back on. One of Brecht’s greatest inconsistencies was that, despite his frequent postulations on the importance of emotional distance, he had an irrepressible knack for writing vivid and endearing characters. Here we have the ruthless Ernesto Roma (Peter Paltos), Ui’s tough mentor in crime who turned a spineless common thief into a deadly rabble-rouser with the nerve to eventually kill him. In a “parable play” that draws heavily on Shakespeare, and even goes as far as flat-out copying a few scenes from Richard III, Roma, and his real life counterpart Ernst Röhm, are both the Banquo and the Lady Macbeth in Ui and Hitlers’ origin stories. Paltos not only masters his menacing presence, but, with the right makeup on, he also happens to look a lot like Laurence Olivier. Of course, the other standout characterisation here is Ui himself. Banders certainly has the right stuff and isn’t afraid to get up close and personal with the audience while in character. He consciously breaks the fourth wall in a glorious moment of theatrical self-reference and, in one scene, he impressively manages a dexterous run through the audience. Thanks to the talents of Banders, Paltos, Brecht and Rouse, the great anti-hero and his seedy keeper have a life beyond the confines of the allegories, something they probably weren’t supposed to have in theory, but in practice is really what allows this piece to work as a two-hour play.

Banders certainly has the right stuff and isn’t afraid to get up close and personal with the audience while in character. He consciously breaks the fourth wall in a glorious moment of theatrical self-reference and, in one scene, he impressively manages a dexterous run through the audience. Thanks to the talents of Banders, Paltos, Brecht and Rouse, the great anti-hero and his seedy keeper have a life beyond the confines of the allegories, something they probably weren’t supposed to have in theory, but in practice is really what allows this piece to work as a two-hour play.
