Theatre: EUTC confuse their seasons
Wendla wants to learn. Melchior knows too much. Ilse wants to soar. Moritz can’t keep up. Martha’s beaten nightly. The others wish they were. They dance it out, scream it out, cry it out, laugh it out and get shouted down.
Devised around Wedekind’s classic by the cast, EUTC’s production opens at the Debating Hall, Teviot Row House, Bristo Square, on Wednesday.
