This time there are no prizes at the ARD Radio Play Days, but there is a broad program. Among the VIP guests are Lars Eidinger and Nora Gomringer.
Actor Matthias Brandt (63) received a small record player for Christmas as a child and listened to radio plays in his room. “I liked ‘Hui Buh, the Castle Ghost’ best,” said Brandt on the occasion of the ARD radio play days, which start on Thursday at the Center for Art and Media (ZKM) Karlsruhe. “Read by the great Hans Clarin, who later also spoke Pumuckl.”
According to the statement, Brandt said that he had always particularly liked the radio play genre – both as a listener and as a creator. “Radio play is an art form that is based directly on the origins of my profession, the oral telling of stories.” More than anywhere else on radio or television, radio plays experiment in terms of content and form. “I think that’s great, but it generally doesn’t seem enough to me.”
ARD radio play days with Eidinger disco
At the 21st edition of the ARD radio play days under the leadership of Südwestrundfunk (SWR), the premieres of ten radio play productions and “Anti Disco” with actor Lars Eidinger will be on show until Sunday program. Brandt and Jens Thomas want to perform the word-music collage “The Mines of Falun”. For children there is the live radio play “Till Eulenspiegel”. The “Night of the Radio Play” with writer Nora Gomringer on Saturday, for example, will be about the use of artificial intelligence.
