Review:

Ronald Meyer-Arlt. "Spiel: Geschichte. Stefan Zweigs 'Sternstunden der Menschheit' auf der Cumberlandschen Bühne uraufgeführt" in Hannoversche Allgemeine Zeitung [Hannover], 10 May 2010. The review contains a photograph of Susana Fernandes Genebra and the four male actors but for some reason Julia Schmalbrock was omitted
