Der zerbrochene Krug Ullmann

He, village judge Adam, fell out of bed, then tripped over himself and therefore had to hold court with his amazingly battered face and unfortunately also without a wig: Mrs. Marthe brought charges against Ruprecht, he had the smashed a valuable jar during late-night meetings with her daughter Eve. Ruprecht denies this and instead accuses his fiancée Eve of infidelity – he caught her with someone else who fled unrecognized. Eve is silent.

This Adam's fall is just the first lie the judge will tell in the course of the trial. With the help of the court counselor Walter, who had arrived and was actively supported by the writer Licht, the case soon became clear: it was about abuse.

The audacity with which Adam distracts from himself as the perpetrator, rejects all responsibility and wants to cement the existing balance of power turns the drama into a comedy.

English

Er, Dorfrichter Adam, sei aus dem Bett gefallen, anschließend über sich selbst gestolpert und müsse deshalb mit diesem erstaunlich zerschundenen Gesicht und leider auch ohne Perücke Gerichtstag halten: Frau Marthe erhebt Anklage gegen Ruprecht, er habe beim nächtlichen Treffen mit ihrer Tochter Eve einen wertvollen Krug zerschlagen. Ruprecht streitet das ab und bezichtigt stattdessen seine Verlobte Eve der Untreue  er habe sie mit einem anderen ertappt, der aber unerkannt geflohen sei. Eve schweigt.

Dieser Adamsfall ist nur die erste Lüge, die der Richter im Laufe des Prozesses von sich geben wird. Mit Hilfe der angereisten Gerichtsrätin Walter, tatkräftig unterstützt von Schreiber Licht, ist der Fall bald klar: Es geht um Missbrauch.

Die Dreistigkeit, mit der Adam von sich als Täter ablenken, jede Verantwortung von sich weisen und die bestehenden Machtverhältnisse zementieren will, macht das Drama zum Lustspiel.
