GOD by Ferdinand von Schirach November - December 2025

Enter the council, hear the experts, make your judgement. Rachel Gärtner has requested a dose of pentobarbital - a drug used overseas to peacefully end life. The legal courts have ruled she has the right to choose, but the ethical question remains: should a doctor assist her? The decision is in the audience’s hands.

After the sell-out success of Terror in 2024, The Mill now brings back Ferdinand von Schirach with GOD - a play of particular relevance as the ACT introduces voluntary assisted dying this November. Set inside Germany’s Ethics Council, the audience is thrust into a moral showdown.
