200th anniversary of Wilhelm Tell by Friedrich Schiller:
with the German National Theatre Weimar, Director: Lukas Leuenberger. The German National Theatre Weimar will be staging “Wilhelm Tell” open air at Rütli. A unique theatre experience at a very special, historical location. 17 March 2004 marks the 200th anniversary of the first performance of “Switzerland’s” most famous play. The work was written by Friedrich Schiller in Weimar at the instigation of Goethe, who came across the Tell material at Lake Lucerne. This became a lasting literary tribute to the legendary hero and the landscape of the emerging Swiss Confederation. The 2004 anniversary year provides good grounds to celebrate this work of international stature in an extraordinary manner; with a cultural link between the earliest Swiss entity and Weimar. Taking part in this event:
The Tell Players and Theatre Company Altdorf, the production by Lukas Leuenberger, the MUSEE SUISSE Forum of Swiss History in Schwyz and the German National Theatre Weimar.
