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 8: BODIES ATE, SPOKE & SANG
Tour Guide: KATHARINA SCHLENDER
Let’s take a minute and figure out where we are. POCO-Domäne. Condition: public. Two people are buying a bed for themselves. One where they be without shoes and very private, but then there’s a fight and suddenly the innermost feelings are brought into motion. Our reaction to this? We try to become private.
Spinach dumplings versus Königsberger meatballs. Let’s indulge our mortal remains with a beer and try to come into conversation as much as we understand each other. Let’s talk. Let’s try to understand each through language. Let’s listen to authors. Authors originally from outside the German language but write in German, write plays. In the direction of Germany. That is, sort of in our direction. We’ll see if we feel spoken to.
Feeling is good. What does the alphabet sound like? Spoken language results in voice. Human voices result in melodies. What does the alphabet sound like when it is sung? Let’s end things with the song. Not without a song, in utter failure. It would be a pity.
