Situations

Description

Where exactly does the line between life and artistic experience run? Is everything that happens on stage a representation? And are the situations of our everyday lives truly free of meaning? The program "Situations" blurs these boundaries: sound, gesture, and physical action intertwine until fiction and reality, stage and life are no longer clearly distinguishable. The musicians play their instruments, but they also move through the space, speak to each other, come into conflict, and perhaps find each other again. Thus, "Situations" directs the gaze to the seemingly ordinary. Everyday actions become musical material, familiar gestures appear in a new light. A program about the small dramas of coexistence and the beauty hidden within them.
