“Excitement of our people” // Raul Maia // offene Probe

Im_flieger@Schokoladenfabrik // Gaudenzdorfergürtel 43–45/4. Stock/4C
1120 Wien (U4 Margaretengürtel) >> map
Freier Eintritt!

Nach einer einmonatigen residency@Im_flieger laden wir zu einer offenen Probe ein, in der wir Teile des entwickelten Materials praktizieren und zu einem Gespräch einladen.
Wir untersuchen Systeme und Wege, durch die im Theater soziale Beziehungen und Bedeutungen entstehen können, die nicht von einer vorgegeben Geschichte generiert werden. Vielmehr geht es um die physische Verhandlung eines potentiellen, fiktiven Ereignisses, bei dem sich Form und Inhalt in einem Wechselspiel entfalten. Die Differenz der beiden ist verschwommen und die Produktion von Bedeutung entsteht im Kopf der Zuschauerinnen.
