Mathematics, Spaces, and Prime Numbers on Stage

The guest performance “Who Was Bernhard Riemann?” at the German Theater Göttingen is dedicated to the extraordinary mathematician Bernhard Riemann. The focus is on Riemann's revolutionary view of spaces and his engagement with prime numbers – topics that still hold a special fascination today.

The premiere will take place on November 14, 2026 at dt.2. The guest performance brings mathematical questions to the stage and invites viewers to consider Riemann's thinking from a new perspective. It deals with ideas that go beyond mere numbers and shape our understanding of space and structure.

Mathematics on Stage

Bernhard Riemann is considered a defining figure in mathematics. His perspective on spaces and prime numbers was groundbreaking and has significantly influenced the scientific discourse in these areas. The event at the German Theater Göttingen takes these themes as a starting point for a theatrical exploration of his life and work.

The title “Who Was Bernhard Riemann?” poses an open question: How can a mathematical thinker be made tangible on stage? The guest performance focuses on Riemann's revolutionary ideas and makes them the subject of a public event in Göttingen.
