About This Show

Request Programme, written by 1970’s seminal German playwright Franz Xavier Kroetz (translated by Katharina Hehn) is a 45-minute, one-woman character study performed entirely without dialogue. Its story focuses on the mundane, everyday activities of Miss Rasch who has returned home from work only to make preparations for the next day. As she attends to her activities she listens to a radio request programme. In the play’s final moments, Miss Rasch takes a lethal dosage of sleeping pills.

Request Programme is directed and designed by Zishan Ugurlu, with Actress, Raina von Waldenburg performing the role of lone Miss Rasch. The backdrop sound-scape of the radio request programme is to be composed nightly by musician, and composer, Joshua Fried, via live radio broadcasts.
