Summary/Abstract: Büchner’s drama Leonce and Lena becomes in the vision of Robert Wilson something in between a theatrical performance and a musical production, where two main aesthetic components occur: sound and visual component on the one side, composition of the dramatic figure on the other side. The dramatic figures move during the performance like “automates” resembling the Über-Marionette concept of Craig, the bodies revealing the specific Wilsonian slow motion rhythm, generating a kind of human-pictures, always present in his so called “theatre of images”.
