CUTTING BALL THEATER: Expressionist Texts

Cutting Ball, a San Francisco based experimental theater company now residing at Modern Times, is renowned for its unique creative productions and revisioned classics that emphasize language and images, promising sensational experiences for all. The German Expressionists were the bridge between the Realistic dramas of Henrik Ibsen and the modern, powerful dramas of Bertolt Brecht. From Frank Wedekind to Ernst Toller, Oskar Kokoschka, and Carl Sternheim, the world was forever changed with these strange, intriguing masterpieces of language and images. A challenge for audience, actor and director, these are puzzles to be pondered, torn apart, and examined, just as the playwrights tore apart and examined humanity.
