Lars Eidinger is considered one of the most important actors of his generation. He makes a guest appearance at the Elbphilharmonie in Hamburg with Bertolt Brecht’s »Hauspostille«. Congenially accompanied by the musician and composer Hans Jörn Brandenburg on piano, harpsichord and harmonium, Lars Eidinger sings and reads from Brecht’s collection of poems. Eidinger and Brandenburg take a deep breath of wild Brecht and bring his poetry and »Wasserleichenpoesie« to the stage as a dazzling synthesis of the arts. They savour the eerie beauty of the morbid, which has already served as a model for pop culture icons such as David Bowie, Iggy Pop and Nick Cave.
