Summary
Georg Kaiser: From morning to midnight
Drama in two parts
The drama From morning to midnight is Kaiser's second great literary and theatrical success. Published two years after Citizens of Calais in 1916, the play was staged at Munich's Kammerspiele in April 2017, just a few months after Citizens of Calais premiered in Frankfurt am Main.
