Dash Arts Café
Dash Arts presents a Café exploring the world of German artist Günter Grass: novelist, poet, playwright, illustrator, graphic artist, sculptor and the recipient of the 1999 Nobel Prize in Literature.
His work explored the impact of WW2 on the German people, with a deep concern for those marginalised in society. Through magic realism and satire, Grass questioned reality, challenged inequality and never shied away from provocation.
We’ll immerse ourselves in Grass’ writing, which includes
The Tin Drum, discussing his controversial political leanings and their impact on his work and looking at the ongoing impact of his novels today.
Berliner Ensemble's Artistic Director
Oliver Reese joins Kneehigh Theatre's Co-Artistic Director

The Tin Drum, alongside Professor
Rebecca Braun from Lancaster University to discuss Grass' writing, legacy and more.
Featuring bi-lingual readings of Grass's writing and specially curated film material of his work across the years by
