Student project: Festive greeting for the 25th anniversary of the Hanover Polytechnic (1856)

Explanation of the GeistSoz-Theater at KIT:

"A poem exists as a written source. When reading it, one imagines how the voice, the emphasis and the rhythm of this poem might have sounded at the jubilee celebrations. Members of KIT's GeistSoz Theater offer an interpretation of this.
The youngest university theater group at KIT is notable for its self-written texts, which are presented on various small stages in Karlsruhe. The GeistSoz-Theater is mainly supported by active and former students of the KIT Faculty of Humanities and Social Sciences and is known for also performing social and socio-critical plays, which are usually performed on campus in the fall."
