Work biography

After completing his professional training, Oliver Kluck began studying engineering in Warnemünde ; after dropping out of his studies, he moved to Leipzig in 2006 , where he studied prose , drama and new media at the German Literature Institute at the University of Leipzig .

In the 2010/2011 season he delivered a series of texts for the German National Theater Weimar . In October 2010 the Oktoberlabor was performed in the boiler room of the Weimar electrical works. This was followed by the November laboratory and in 2011 the April laboratory and mail laboratory . At the Schauspielhaus Graz , three Kluck texts were performed in the 2011/2012 season under the motto “Learning from industry - about the possibilities for increasing efficiency”. The first premiere , entitled The Reconstruction of the Haider Monument , took place on October 15, 2011. After the play The Downfall of the House of Wuppertaal , the premiere of Mein Name ist Programm followed on April 13, 2012, directed by Christina Rast . His play on the possibilities of the punk movement was performed on November 18, 2011 at the Rostock Volkstheater .

His work Die Froschfotzenlederfabrik , directed by Anna Bergmann, premiered on December 21, 2011 in the Kasino am Schwarzenbergplatz of the Burgtheater in Vienna and was also set up as a radio play by SWR under the direction of Leonhard Koppelmann . According to Kluck, the play is about a factory that produces special clothing for neo-Nazis. In January 2012, the play Leben und Erben was premiered in the Malersaal of the Schauspielhaus in Hamburg .

Kluck's views on theater are made clear in a letter he wrote to Liane Melzer , the Senator for Culture of the Hanseatic City of Rostock . In the letter he denies the opinion expressed by the Senator for Culture in a foreword to the 2011/2012 season booklet that theater has an educational mandate . Kluck argues: “The theater is neither a school nor a supplementary school offer, but a place of subjectivity. The theater's repertoire is not a curriculum, but a pure feeling and feeling ... Accordingly, the theater is not a place of education, but a place of doubt ... "

Oliver Kluck's pieces have been translated into Spanish , Czech and Polish (as of 2012).
