In Cécile, three artists explore a world of ordered shapes and silhouettes and navigate through a system in which a single motif is repeated: the loop of infinity. On a movable stage, the acrobats grasp the highly physical mechanics of mutual dependence and seek cohesion in a constant flow of movement. The more is at stake, the more they go through various stages of solidarity, adaptation, and urgency. Each repetition of the loop offers new perspectives, each movement a challenge. In Cécile, the complexity of the human being becomes visible in the face of changing constellations – a piece in which the balance between order and chaos proves to be an art in itself.

WARTEN – Szenen aus der Zwischenwelt - Uraufführung

In WARTEN, a crackling raincoat, a whirligig, a rolling suitcase, and a 30-meter industrial zipper are in use. At the center of the action is a train station bench, above which hangs a two-meter-long pendulum clock. Waiting is a fundamental human experience. Maren Strack presents four different states in her new performance, from waiting in silence to the nervous frenzy of indefinite waiting. Silent waiting stimulates listening, and Maren Strack explores this state in delicate sound images – then again, the indefinite waiting in frenzy leads to exploding choreography outbreaks. Maren Strack's performances are known for their use of various everyday materials. The material is tested for its acoustic usability and is co-determining for the course of action of the performance.

A large light sculpture hangs above the stage. Nine dancers and a DJ gradually occupy the space and go through different moods, sometimes meditative, sometimes high-energy, but always connected to each other and the audience. Connections – between people, places, bodies, and communities – are a theme that Brazilian choreographer Renan Martins repeatedly grapples with. In a playful yet critical manner and influenced by his personal experiences as a queer person of color in Europe, Renan Martins combines dance and music with political reflection. Inspired by Bell Hooks' book All About Love: New Visions, Renan Martins and Unusual Symptoms explore our relationship with relationships and intimacy. Diamonds is a dance from separation to connection, about a society that constantly reinforces individualism. But how long can we endure without relationship, without belonging, without being together?

Feierlichkeiten zur Beerdigung des Kapitalismus

"Hereby we want to announce that capitalism has peacefully passed away yesterday, after a long illness. We would like to invite you to a memorial service to celebrate the passing of an economic and social system that has divided opinions. But we now know that we must say goodbye and plan for a new future, for us, for the coming generations, and for the planet."

In this immersive theater experience, there will be space for letting go, for sadness, and for celebration. Feierlichkeiten zur Beerdigung des Kapitalismus is a performative ritual with elements of theater, dance, and music, which transitions into a communal celebration. Because when we cry together, we can also dance together. When we eat together, we can start talking about how we want to live together.

In simple language:

"Capitalism is dead. After a long time, we say goodbye to a system that has caused much conflict. Now it's time to start anew – for us, our children, and the Earth."

The play is about saying goodbye and new beginnings. The evening includes theater, dance, and music. The audience sometimes participates – for example, in questions, conversations, and discussions about our society. The play is humorous and shows how important community is. In the end, everyone eats together. (The meal is included in the ticket price.)

Relationshifts

4x4 meters – a box. 2 performers – a couple.

The audience sits around the transparent cube. In a limited space, the various phases and dynamics of a relationship are negotiated through dance. From the romantically enthusiastic beginning, through the shared space and the feeling of deep roots and togetherness, to phases of longing for autonomy, the desire to break out of familiar patterns, leaving obligations behind. The one-hour piece repeats every evening twice in a linked structure. The audience is invited to watch one or both loops. In the same space, with the same choreographic structure, but changing roles and parameters: do the protagonists really act the same? Do they take the same paths? Do they lose control? Do they change? Relationshifts takes all the facets of everyday life as a couple and declines the emotional and physical aspects of a relationship in different life situations. This creates the choreographic picture of a relationship, in which the audience can also discover their own everyday moments.

“Ceren Oran, who was recently awarded the Dance Promotion Award of the City of Munich, comes up with a veritable surprise – a real masterpiece. And she manages this thanks to the small format, the intimacy in the tight space.” Eva-Elisabeth Fischer, Münchner Feuilleton

Subsequently on 24.01.: Audience discussion

In simple language:

In this dance piece, the audience sits around a transparent cube. Inside the cube are two people. They show through dance how a relationship changes – from the beginning of love to the desire for more freedom. The piece lasts for one hour and is performed twice in a row. The audience can watch one or both parts. When you watch both parts, you also discover slight changes. Relationshifts shows different sides of life as a couple and how feelings and bodies change in a relationship.

Lesung: Verlassene Nester

»How Patricia Hempel writes about the loss of innocence and the post-reunification period is an event.« Florian Valerius

Summer 1992 in the former Elbe border area. Pilly is thirteen and longs for belonging. But even two years after reunification, her family is still clinging to the ideals of yesterday. The father escapes to the pub, the aunts dream of the Golden West, and there is still no trace of Pilly's mother. Pilly finds support only in her older classmate Katja. A delusion. She does not suspect that by the end of this summer, her world will once again be different.

Patricia Hempel, born in 1983 in Berlin, initially studied prehistoric and early history before moving from archaeology to study literary writing/editing at the University of Hildesheim. Verlassene Nester was supported by the Berlin Senate Administration for Culture and Social Cohesion with the scholarship for German-language literature and nominated for the Alfred Döblin Prize 2023.

In simple language:

On this evening, Patricia Hempel will read an excerpt from her new novel Verlassene Nester. The novel tells the story of Pilly, who is 13 years old. The plot takes place in the summer of 1992 in East Germany. Two years after the fall of the wall, Pilly's family is struggling to cope with the new situation. Pilly feels alone and is searching for friendship and love.
