Spend a Day at the Festival Accompanied by an Artist from Berlin’s Independent Performing Arts Community
Members of Berlin’s independent performing arts community become guides during the festival who select their very own personal highlights from the broad array of festival programming and invite audience members to set off with them on a journey of discovery throughout the festival. Tours will include an average of three productions. In addition, audience members have the opportunity to talk about and discuss what they have seen and Berlin’s independent performing arts community within the group. A variety of artists invites audience members to participate in a total of 13 tours throughout the week of the festival.
Admission to the various performances is included in the ticket price of the tours. The travel between the performance venues will be conducted on public transportation. Public transportation tickets are not included in the price.
Tour 1: The Tour of Feelings
Tour Guide: CHRISTINA ERTL-SHIRLEY
In this tour, we will throw ourselves into the worlds of feelings of the Berlin performance community: our first station as audience members takes us into a staged relationship conflict, where we will experience an interplay between voyeurism and vicarious embarrassment as audience members. After this, we will be confronted with the ideas of Heiner Müller in the sound installation Die Müllermatrix (The Müller Matrix). What thoughts and feelings do the statements from the master of coolness and distance trigger within us?
The tour then concludes with a performance at ACUD, one of the few still-existing independent performance venues founded in East Berlin after the Fall of the Berlin Wall. There, the clown artist Lena Binski delivers a declaration of love to the silent film era at the beginning of the 20th century while researching happiness, love, loneliness, hope, disappointment and redemption in the depths of both the comic and tragic.
