A world premiere play about stories from the MAHABHARATA and about the Swiss peacemaker and hermit BROTHER KLAUS; performed in the ancient South Indian Naathu Kuuthu form.
By Eelakhutan
Dramaturgy: Anton Ponrajah, Peter Braschler in collaboration with Eelakhutan.<\/p>

EELAKHUTHAN, the Tamil theater master, creates his own poetic version of a part of the Mahabharata on issues of war and peace, prevention of war and peacemaking. Together with him, the Maralam Theater team interweaves a parallel story and comparable experience from the European region from the time of BRUDER KLAUS.
Two narrators\/actors form the framework in which the Naatu-Kutthu form, one of the oldest ritual theater forms in the world, unfolds. The theme is presented in a humorous and serious way in relation to reality in the modern world, to the conditions of exile and in relation to the world here.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

Nicholas of Fl\u00fce, known as Brother Klaus<\/em> (1417-1487) lived as a wealthy and respected farmer with a family of several people in Obwalden (a Swiss canton in central Switzerland). At the age of 45, he increasingly felt a calling to God within himself, which triggered a deep crisis in his life, which he was only able to overcome by completely turning his back on his family and the material values he had acquired. In 1467, he therefore set off on a pilgrimage, from which he returned as a hermit. Until his death, he lived in a small hut in the Ranft, (Fl\u00fceli-Ranft is a Swiss village in the municipality of Sachseln in the canton of Obwalden in Central Switzerland), where he spent 19 years without food and was repeatedly sought out by political rulers as a mediator in the bloody history of the early Swiss Confederation. Due to his abstinence from food and drink, he was already venerated as a saint during his lifetime, after the Church had convinced itself that his asceticism was not the work of an evil spirit.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

The performance of MARALAM deals with the part of the Mahabharata in which the cousins, the Kaurava<\/em> and Pandava<\/em> princes, are in conflict with each other over the return of the Pandavas’ land. The Pandava<\/em> peace offer is rejected. – The path to war or peace is still open. In the Mahabharata<\/em>, the conflict finally leads to the great battle at Kuruksetra. In the midst of the battle, Krishna<\/em> imparts the sacred Bhagavad Gita to the war hero Arjuna.<\/em><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

The old \u201cWaldst\u00e4tterbund<\/em>\u201d, comprising Uri, Schwyz, Unterwalden and Lucerne, is about to be tested by the alliance of the cities of Zurich, Bern, Fribourg, Solothurn and Lucerne. They want to counter the violent political chaos with forward-looking stability and greater legal certainty. Fratricidal war is in the air. Mediation thanks to BRUDER KLAUS, who is not present in Stans.
The Stanser Verkommnis, also known as the Stanser Vertr\u00e4ge, refers to an agreement concluded in December 1481 by the Eight Places of the Confederation of Confederates, which settled the internal conflict, particularly between the city and country places. The Confederation of the Swiss Confederates subsequently expanded to thirteen places by 1513.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
