Where flowers bloom

These photos were taken at the Bundesgartenschau in the Havel region in 2015.  The BuGa is a biennial federal horticultural show in Germany.  It takes place in different cities or regions.  The cities take the occasion to improve on their parks and gardens, and besides the flower displays, which are often stunning, to create lasting structures which can be enjoyed for years to come by residents and visitors alike.

tdp heritage

To me, heritage is connected with language, therefore I chose to display photos from our local theatre production.  All the photos were taken during rehearsal (except the bottom left one) since I was in the cast.  Each year a different play of of the same author is performed.  He wrote in the early parts of the 20th century but the stories take place in the 19th.  He wrote in the local vernacular and the historical society puts on the plays as part of their effort to preserve the traditions and the dialect of the town.  The backdrop – depicting typical half timbered houses from the area – dates back to the 1950s and has been used in every production since.
