Two striking scripts by Büchner meet in Yücel Erten’s unique design; the play Leonce and Lena, a class and system critique in a fairy tale setting, and a declaration-like pamphlet titled Der hessische Landbote (The Hessian Courier). Printed in 1834, the distribution of the pamphlet was banned and Büchner had to flee from Germany due to pressure. The play, which also includes answers to the question “What would have happened if the pamphlets were distributed?”, invites the audience to become a traveller in a road story with its live music and approach edging on the borders of absurd.
