Milo Rau new "Literature Club" critic
Swiss playwright, director and essayist Milo Rau will be a regular contributor to SRF's "Literaturclub" in 2017. The first program with Milo Rau will be shown at the end of January.
Milo Rau, born in Berlin in 1977, is one of the most important theater makers of our time. His productions, films and theatrical show trials attract great international attention. The multi-award-winning director was most recently honored with the Saarbrücken Poetikdozentur for drama.
With the engagement of Milo Rau, the panel of critics of the "Literaturclub" will be further developed in 2017. In addition to Rau, critics Martin Ebel, Elke Heidenreich, Hildegard Keller, Rüdiger Safranski, Thomas Strässle and Philipp Tingler will continue to be on board. Each issue also features a celebrity guest.
Judith Hardegger, editorial director of the Literature Club: "I am extraordinarily pleased that we have won Milo Rau for the round, a personality who combines literary competence with a great sense for the important social processes of our time."
SRF records the "Literature Club" in the Sihlcity paper hall in Zurich in public with an audience. The first round with Milo Rau will be recorded on January 30 and broadcast on January 31.
