THE REVOLUTION STARVES ITS CHILDREN
The revolution starves its children
Theater performance and supporting program about the "power of memory"
For the last time, Futur3 is showing its international theater production DIE REVOLUTION LÄSST IHRE KINDER VERHUNGERN at Depot 2 at Schauspiel Köln. The multi-nominated and award-winning play about the Holodmor - Stalin's starvation terror in Ukraine in the 1930s - paints a large panoramic picture of historical events and personal stories. This year marks the 90th anniversary of the Holodmor. To mark the occasion, we will be discussing current references and historical taboos in Ukrainian and German cultures of remembrance with experts around the performance.
