Monypolo II – YOUR SYSTEM LOVES YOU! 2x04 THE TAKEOVER (Prinzip Gonzo)

Bingewatch

The second season of this theatre series is looking towards the future with hope and ambition. In the first season the conquistador Hernán Cortés taught us that we have the possibility to love the system that originated in his time: the capitalism. In the present day it’s now up to his heirs to further perfect capitalism. „LOVE YOUR SYSTEM!“ was the first seasons mission, „YOUR SYSTEM LOVES YOU!“ is this years therapeutic empowerment in five episodes, that prompts the students of capitalism into action.

„MONYPOLO II – DEIN SYSTEM LIEBT DICH!“ is the second part oft a two year cooperation between PRINZIP GONZO and BALLHAUS OST, funded by the Fonds Doppelpass. In juli 2017 the final production of the cooperation is opening: „MONYPOLO II – DAS SPIEL ZUR SERIE“. The audience is invited to engage in an open-world-simulation and experience and develop some of the utopian views presented in the series. And eventually after two years we might find an answer to the biggest questions of all: can capitalism be saved?

Careful: this show is not really suited for an english audience as we do not have surtitles.

» Prinzip Gonzo

Alida Breitag, David Czesienski, Robert Hartmann, Holle Münster and Tim Tonndorf form the collective deliberation plant PRINZIP GONZO. Since 2010 they try to offer a platform for meaningful exchange in reply to a theatre scene often ruled by unproductive, competitive pressure. The members of the group work in various teams within the collective and realize productions in the independent scene as well as at municipal and state theatres. With "SPIEL DES LEBENS" (2014) PRINZIP GONZO invented sandbox-game-theatre in cooperation with BALLHAUS OST, a theatrical open-world-simulation, its concept of playing will be further explored and developed within upcoming projects.

» Ballhaus Ost

Ballhaus Ost is a production space for independent theatre, performance and dance.
Located in the former celebration and assembly hall of a Berlin Free Church Community, built in 1907, Ballhaus Ost cooperates with groups and artists from all fields of the performing arts, including well established groups and artists as well as newcomers and so far not well known participants of the independent theater scene.
As an experimental stage for various forms of contemporary theatre, Ballhaus Ost invites to experience and discover new ways of artistic debates with today's reality of life.
Before the venue was reestablished as theatre, in the GDR, the ballroom was used as „Casino des Handwerks“, after the breakdown oft he wall it was a pool hall and a night club.
Ballhaus Ost was established by the directors Uwe-Moritz Eichler, Philipp Reuter and the actress Anne Tismer in 2006. Since 2011 Daniel Schrader and Tina Pfurr have been the artistic directors.
