After the German translation of Eve Leigh’s MIDNIGHT MOVIE was presented as a staged reading by Verena Regensburger at the Stückemarkt of the Theatertreffen 2021, the Rowohlt Theaterverlag commissioned the translation of Leigh’s text WILDFIRE ROAD. We just delivered this under the title FLÄCHENBRAND. The German premiere is scheduled for September 2022.

MIDNIGHT MOVIE – now available from Rowohlt Theater
After a lot of time (thanks, Corona) for meticulous polishing, after a wonderful lectorate (thank you, Rowohlt), the beautiful text by Eve Leigh is now available in German from Rowohlt Theater. I am very much looking forward to see it produced!
MIDNIGHT MOVIE
by Eve Leigh
A lonely voice sleepless in front of the Internet, at night. New tab – a man in the bathtub. New tab – a young woman inside a watertank. New tab – a girl on the tracks.
Eve Leigh’s dream – or nightmare – about the solitude of pain, about digital bodies as (questionable) freedom from one’s own limited body, about handicaps, accessibility, force and personal freedom, premiered at the Royal Court Theatre in London in November/December 2019.
Commissioned by Rowohl Theater Verlag, Bochert Translations translates this fascinating text by the British-American playwright into German.
