Description

In From Morning to Midnight the cashier, downtrodden victim of the capitalist system, turns bank robber in order to test the power, freedom and happiness that money can bring.

His grand gesture of setting himself and others free turns into an odyssey of disillusion and ends in his violent death.

The unique stage technique employed by Kaiser is as challenging today as it was when the play was first performed.

The Burghers of Calais has always been considered Kaiser's greatest play and the "classic" of Expressionist drama.

In it, Kaiser exploits the non-naturalistic technique of Expressionism.

The play embraces vast expansiveness and total concentration, stylized gesture and lengthy monologues.
