Fatzer Project

Thursday 1st Jul 2010

The famous German dramatist and poet Bertold Brecht did not finish his play Traces of Fatzer, which told of 4 soldiers in the Great War who deserted and fled to Mülheim an der Ruhr.  He had indicated that if the play was ever finished the stage production should be in Mülheim. For 3 years up to City of Culture 2010 celebrations, students from Mülheim's twin towns worked together on completing this task, with the production taking place in front af a live audience in September 2010. All participants from Darlington enjoyed their participation in this remarkable event.
