BAAL | GINOIDE (Spanien)

Year 2029. GINOIDE is a robot with female resemblance. „Nana“ was built following rules set by a neoliberal society. Rules that our bodies, real or fake, have to obey. GINOIDE, will make us think about sentimental and sexual relationships. Where is humanity heading to? What will happen to the reproduction of our species? The performers Catalina Carrasco and Gaspar Morey present the intergenerational piece GINOIDE together with Max. 

Performance: Catalina Carrasco, Gaspar Morey, Max

Eine Gruppe junger Tänzer:innen teilt Erfahrungen des Erwachsenwerdens zwischen queerer Identitätsfindung, Machtmissbrauch und sexueller Belästigung.

Das Publikum ist eingeladen, die pulsierende Teenagerzeit aus der Perspektive des Zuschauers, eines Elternteils, eines Lehrers und eines Entscheidungsträgers noch einmal zu erleben und über Machtverhältnisse in zwischenmenschlichen und generationenübergreifenden Beziehungen nachzudenken.

Ain’t no party like a kitchen party! Dieser Weisheit folgend geben wir Performer:innen, Nachwuchskünstler:innen und dem Publikum die Gelegenheit, beim gemeinsamen Zubereiten des Abendessens neugierig zu werden, sich besser kennenzulernen, Ideen und Erfahrungen informell auszutauschen. Nach dem Essen geht es ab auf den Dancefloor!

Mariona Jaume & Maya Triay | TRENTA-SET I MIG (Spain)

Hanna Held, Vivien Kovarbasic, Vika Grin, Rina Schmeing & Andrea Kößler | FOODPORN (Germany)
In FOODPORN, the performers put food at the centre of their feminist utopia and offer an invitation to collective seduction through the seemingly sinful charms of food.

Ema Senkuvienė, Marius Eidrigevičius & Greta Snitkutė | Truth or Dare (Lithuania)
As pieces of a global game we move on the space-like game board, hoping to be on the right side at the end. But: What is right for you? The performers reflect on their own origins and their history.
