On 2 June, Désirée Nick celebrates her premiere as Joan Crawford in "Bette & Joan" at Hamburg''s Ernst-Deutsch-Theater. Bette Davis and Joan Crawford, two of the truly great Hollywood legends, come face to face during the shooting of the cult film "What Ever Happened to Baby Jane?". Both are at the lowest point of their careers, and the film is meant to catapult them back to the top — failure is not an option. As vast as the egos of the two Oscar-winning screen divas is the feud they wage with one another on set. Behind the fierce, bitterly comic sparring we come to know two sensitive women who, with all their insecurities, must constantly reassert themselves anew in the merciless theatre of Hollywood, as in their own lives. As actresses, with their intensity and their courage to depict modern women''s lives unsparingly, they are far ahead of their time. The play is on the programme until 10 July 2016, directed by Folke Braband.
