Chroniken vom Mars

In "The Martian Chronicles", published in 1950, Ray Bradbury evokes with prescience and poetry the fragile existence of mankind and its ambiguous relationship with nature. His science-fiction classic deals with the colonization of an alien planet, and observes how human beings are capable of both the best and the worst. Philippe Quesne, the renowned French playwright, creates theater with subtle humor, grand metaphors and enchanting images. For him, the stage is a refuge and playground for a freewheeling exploration of episodes from Ray Bradbury's seminal universe.
