Kafka's Fragment Meets Absurd Comedy and the Present

Open Call: Oklahama is a theatrical production based on Franz Kafka's fragment The Nature Theater of Oklahama. The performance can be seen at the Markgrafentheater Großes Haus in Erlangen and combines absurd comedy with political and social references to the present.

Kafka as a Starting Point

Franz Kafka's fragment forms the literary foundation for this theatrical evening. At its center is a material that is transferred from the author's unique world to the stage. The title refers to the Nature Theater of Oklahama, as it appears in Kafka's fragment. The Erlangen theater production takes this starting point and develops its own interpretation from it.

Absurd Comedy and Current Themes

The performance combines an absurd, possibly surprising comedy with political and social contemporary references. This allows the literary source and current perspectives to intersect. The theater not only makes the Kafka material visible as a classic but also places it in the context of contemporary questions and tensions.
