This performative reading introduces works for stage by renowned Austrian novelist Daniel Kehlmann who will join us on this occasion. Olivier Award-winning director Laurence Boswell (Artistic Director Ustinov Theatre) will direct rehearsed readings of two of Daniel Kehlmann’s plays starting with his critically acclaimed The Ghost in Princeton this December at the ACF.

He will be joined by Academy Award winning adaptor-translator Christopher Hampton, whose own works have been translated into German by Kehlmann.
