''The Investigation'' is a play by Peter Weiss written in 1965 which depicts the Frankfurt Auschwitz Trials of 1963-1965. It premiered on October 19, 1965 on stages in fourteen West and East German cities and at the Royal Shakespeare Company in London. It carries the subtitle "Oratorio in 11 Cantos". Weiss was an observer at the trials and developed the play partially from the reports of Bernd Naumann. ==The World-Theater Project== ''The Investigation'' was originally supposed to be part of a larger "World-Theater Project" which was to follow the structure of Dante Alighieri's ''Divine Comedy''. The three-part theater project was supposed to include the three realms of Paradise, Hell, and Purgatory. In an inversion of Dante's beliefs, ''The Investigation'' was supposed to correspond to the "Paradise" and yet be a place of despair for its victims. ''Inferno'', written in 1964 but first published in 2003 as part of Weiss' estate, described the netherworld in its title. Due to the historical significance of the Auschwitz Trial, the ''Divine Comedy'' project was shelved, and the first third was published separately as ''The Investigation''.
