Chatterflash in front of the yellow wall

Reclam doesn’t need advertising. With this self-confident advertising slogan, the publisher of the little yellow classic booklets once made it clear that it actually doesn’t need to advertise because it has long been at home on all bookshelves. Today, when the bookshelf itself has a rather retro character, the saying is emblazoned above the stage of the Deutsches Theater Berlin. Sure, it’s no longer the kind of irony that knocks you off your feet. But you can do it, this little joke. Especially with Friedrich Schiller’s (Reclam) classic “The Robbers”, which was originally intended as a reading drama.
