An evening between memory, departure, and literary present

With We Have No Other Time Than This, the youth club of the Munich Volkstheater is bringing a piece to stage 3 on July 19, 2026, that tightly weaves poetic language and historical tension. The starting point is poems, letters, and diary entries by Mascha Kaléko; the title refers to a poem of the same name.

Mascha Kaléko as the theatrical voice of a torn era

Berlin in the late 1920s does not appear here as a nostalgic backdrop but as a vibrant metropolis on the brink of upheaval. The production follows Kaléko's journey from the office to the Roman Café, in that literary scene where freedom, diversity, and tolerance collide with growing political threats. This creates a stage experience that puts present and history into a nervous dialogue.

Youth club, self-produced work, and a story full of attitude

Particularly appealing is the handwriting of the youth club: The young performers developed their roles from the characters of the poems and wrote many dialogues themselves. This form of collective work gives the evening an immediate theater atmosphere, where acting, text work, and directorial ideas do not fall apart but sharpen each other.

Why this evening is important now

The play relies on the power of language, literary precision, and a palpable audience reaction that does not arise from effects but from attitude. Those seeking new theater with historical resonance will find here an evening that begins quietly and echoes long after.
