A special Sunday morning in the Kammerspiele: The art of conversation meets art
With A Guest. One Hour, the Schauspielhaus Bochum will launch a new edition of its conversation series on October 4, 2026. This time, Norbert Lammert will host the internationally acclaimed painter Katharina Grosse in the Kammerspiele at Königsallee. The format combines personal biography, artistic perspective, and societal debate into a compact event experience with a clear signature.
A format with attitude and clear profile
The series stands for concentrated conversations with personalities from culture, politics, and society. For one good hour, a guest takes center stage, accompanied by Norbert Lammert as host, known for his pointed questions and a confident, debate-friendly tone. This creates a special audience atmosphere: approachable, attentive, and intellectually lively.
Katharina Grosse brings color, space, and international allure
Katharina Grosse is one of the most prominent artists in Germany. She is known for large-scale installations and her color-intensive works that not only engage with spaces but transform them. For visitors, it will be an evening where art, life journey, and the present collide. The view of Bochum and the biography of the artist, born in Freiburg in 1961 and raised in Bochum, adds a special regional depth to the talk.
Kammerspiele as a stage for closeness and concentration
The Kammerspiele in Schauspielhaus Bochum provide the perfect setting for a conversation format of this kind. With their manageable size and clear theater atmosphere, a direct connection is created between the stage and the audience. This ensures a concentrated event experience that does not rely on large staging and thus has a powerful impact.
Organization, travel, and visitor comfort
The event begins on October 4, 2026, at 11:30 AM. The venue is the Kammerspiele at Schauspielhaus Bochum located at Königsallee 15, 44789 Bochum. The venue is accessible for people with disabilities. There are disabled parking spaces available nearby, and the venue is well connected by public transport. It is advisable to arrive early, as the box office typically opens an hour before the start of the performance and entry to highly requested discussions tends to proceed quickly.
