Meanwhile, he also has to pass the German language exam to become a naturalised citizen of Germany. A dark comedy of becoming and belonging, learning (badly) and loving strongly. An ode to a potential union, a lament for lost citizenship and a celebration of life, theatre director Tim Luscombe’s comic diary places him in the cosmopolitan bubble of Berlin where he juggles German class and the work of adapting Jane Austen's Emma. Witty, charming and always enlightening, Learning German (badly) reflects with deep sadness the reactions of a fierce Remainer when the UK elects to leave the EU, the comedy darkening further as Tim’s priorities and sense of himself as a European shift. A political union is torn apart while a personal union deepens.","brand":"Claret Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48797907583231,"sku":"9781910461440","price":17.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0452\/0886\/2873\/files\/9781910461440-us-300.jpg?v=1783363650","url":"https:\/\/massivebookshop.com\/products\/9781910461440","provider":"MASSIVE BOOKSHOP","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
