#Performance

Curveball (Institut für Widerstand im Postfordismus)

“Curveball”, a BND operative, was used by Colin Powell at the UN as a central witness for legitimating the Iraq War. But the story he tells is full of lies. The performance re-examines one of the biggest scandals in secret service and reflects on the question of whom we believe, for what reasons, and where the principle of deceit can lead us.

Venue Info:

» Theaterdiscounter

Theaterdiscounter, or TD for short, is a theater located at Alexanderplatz with a year-round schedule of programming. The schedule of programming is dedicated to contemporary spoken word theater. Some 30 to 40 different productions, formats and festivals can be seen each season. To make this possible, TD cooperates with artists, theater collectives and partner theaters throughout Germany and internationally. At TD, experienced theater makers create theme-centric pieces of theater that expand aesthetic formal languages. As a theater and production location, we also provide a platform for the next generation of artists. A flexible space concept allows research into new presentation forms for live art and theater in all of its facets.
