Play by Heiner Müller. What is human? Hamletmachine explores the spectrum between the extreme of what it means to be not human, ranging from the most primal and animalistic state of being to utmost sterility and sickly perfection. Somewhere between the two polar points simmers and explodes the question of what it means to be human; whether being human denotes some kind of wholesomeness or if we are only haphazard collages of impressions and impulses. What frames all of this, in appropriate postmodern fashion, is the acknowledgment and celebration of the theatricality and the metatheatricality.
