ManusArts presents VODKA TALKS
With Vodka Talks by Arne Donnie Nielsen, ManusArts presents an international theater co-production directed by Lars Junggreen.
ManusArts is delighted about the success of the international theatre coproduction Vodka Talks, produced in collaboration with HIT International Theatre Arts. Vodka Talks is the English translation of Arne Donnie Nielsen's debut stage play "Die Vodkagespräche". While the German version, starring Karoline Eichhorn and Catrin Striebeck, can be seen on the stage of the Hamburger Kammerspiele, Vanessa Poole and Jana Pulkrabek play the sisters Freya and Edda in the English-language version. Two sisters, while drinking plenty of vodka, sort through their deceased father's estate and discuss politics, religion, and life. The plot combines many socially relevant themes, addressing the disturbing rise of right-wing extremism currently spreading across Europe. The production, which has been staged in Sweden/Malmö and Denmark/Copenhagen is directed by Danish theater veteran Lars Junggreen. Further performances are planned for Hamburg and London.

ManusArts presents HAP
With HAP by award-winning playwright John Foster, ManusArts presents an international theatre co-production directed by Paul Glaser.
In 2022 ManusArts was delighted to present a brilliant quirky new comedy in English, directed by Paul Glaser and produced in collaboration with The English Theatre of Hamburg and HIT International Theatre Arts. After the world premiere and one week of performances in Hamburg, the play travelled to Sweden to perform in Malmö at Bastionen Theatre as part of the official 2021 Move the North cross-border-festival program. In April 2024 the production of Hap was remounted by ManusArts’ Danish sister company HITMOVES and performed at the renowned Theatre ved Sorte Hest in Copenhagen. The play once more united award-winning director Paul Glaser with the original cast actresses Vanessa Poole and Jana Pulkrabek.
