Programme

Voucher shows

As many of the venues have limited seating, there is a system to fairly distribute access to the biggest venues among all visitors. From these 12 voucher shows you can choose two, to which you can gain access by redeeming your voucher before the festival. You will receive all information about the procedure by email before the festival. The shows without vouchers are of course in no way inferior to those with vouchers.

Theatre / Dance / Circus

As usual, we offer you a wide-ranging programme of theatre, dance and circus shows of various genres, both in outdoors and in indoor venues. For all venues with limited seating that are not covered by the new digital voucher system - e.g. the hangars - we have developed a new admission system. At these venues, you will receive an admission token before you are admitted, which will secure your entry. This means that one cannot push themselves into the queues shortly before the start of the performance. You can find all the information in the programme booklet, which you will get at the festival site.

La Manékine

Cie. La Pendue has already impressed the at.tension audience several times with their magic. Now they are back with their new, highly relevant puppet theatre piece. The brilliant duo reinterpret the thousand-year-old fairytale "The Girl Without Hands", which was once written by the Brothers Grimm. The tale presents the puppeteer with a beautiful paradox: she becomes the hands of the handless girl and thus tells the story of the heroine's struggle for freedom.

Petroleo

Immersed in a plastic tide, we will be led to the very essence of this object that is the ring. We will lose ourselves in its immensity. As we go along, the space will be transformed. The emptiness of the stage will be replaced by plastic and colour. The hoops will become more and more important until we are engulfed by their very presence. Could this be a laboratory in which we create and destroy, where we see ourselves as the riders of a universe that we do not end up controlling ?

This grandiose circus concert is a witty and furious celebration of our former vibrant lives. The two artists Elice and Chloé met while training at circus school - 18 years later they met again on a home trainer in a rehabilitation centre. Together they compare which bones they have broken and which injuries they have sustained. Together they rekindle the fire, full of humour and vulnerability.

Runners

Two jugglers on a treadmill: they jog, run, cannot get off, while a musician drives them through a series of experiments. "Runners" deals with the perceived and real speed of time. The central players in the show are two relentless treadmills, which are conducted by the musician like his musical instruments. A grotesquely comical game between the three protagonists gets going and takes its course.

Unfortunately, the event has to be canceled due to injury. „Stek“ conjure up the noise and smoke of the street. With stunts, music, acrobatics, juggling and clowning, „Stek“ brings to life a universe outside of convention. In a whirlpool of jubilant madness, grim black humour and improvisation, these clowns, as outcast marginal figures, tell of the invisible in society. In their turbulent everyday life with chases, jumps and somersaults over containers, life can be worth a piece of bread (Stek). Thanks to a frenzied lust for life, the motto is: Get on with it, whatever the cost!

A Spectacle Of Herself

A bold, acrobatic odyssey through the border areas of mental health, queerness, rage and the space race of the 21st century. The solo is a vulnerable and deeply personal intervention on what it means to take up space, to show oneself and to be seen. The solo navigates grandly between the personal and the political in a mixture of autobiography, lip-sync, video and aerial performance.

Brain-teasers of amazement and tricks of dubious quality. Welcome to the double show: "Terrible for President" and "No Magic" each present their 30 best minutes of nonsense. In "Terrible for President", nothing is true and everything is allowed. A glorification of paradox and contradiction with half lies and half stories. "No Magic" delivers a show that conceals nothing and presents itself so parodically that it becomes serious. With stunts and contortions that cause instant confusion. P.S.

"No intention - just Tourette's, Christian Hempel sends ahead quickly when he is among people. His rants and motorised outbursts cannot be controlled. Tourette's syndrome seeks confrontation and leads to conflict. This spin-off of the production of "Chinchilla Arschloch, waswas" tells of the fear of losing control and verbal attacks.And asks the question of what normality actually is. How much unintentionality can theatre withstand?

What (in)visible legacies do we carry around with us? An inherited ivory tooth becomes the occasion for a search for responsibility in a society whose colonial legacy still resides in museums, cellars and bodies. Between mourning rituals, the search for family traces and speculative science fiction, the artists make the fleshless heritage tangible. Each of them individually and all of them together seek an attitude, a view of the tooth and its time.

Both the choreography and the soundtrack are imbued with the laughter of the faun sculpture: It shakes the body and sets it in seismic motion.

Marcel et ses drôles de femmes
Masacrade
Zeitgenössischer Zirkus
Masacrade

Acrobatic flights of fancy and humorous absurdities in seven suicidal acts and 25 costumes on the flying trapeze! Three performers explore the absurd complexity of human existence and question life. In a firework display of death variations, they try to understand the meaning of life. The acrobatic trio delivers a clever and fast-paced tragicomedy with plenty of humour and grandiose characters, full of surprising twists.

Noose
Figurentheater
Noose

A surrealistic puppet show between black comedy and absurd theatre, with grotesque puppets and dark humour. Noose is the day when you realise that you are not experiencing what you wanted. The moment when your world collapses and the noose tightens around your neck because until then you thought you would live. On a small stage, our lives are exposed - the lives that were never lived.

Sawdust Symphony
Zeitgenössischer Zirkus
Sawdust Symphony

A perfectly orchestrated DIY symphony between contemporary circus and craft obsession. The trio combines their passion for tools, fresh wood and object manipulation. Without words, they tell of the human desire for work, the process from the initial vision to the finished workpiece, the tragedy of labour and the relationship between man and machine. An ingenious performance between clouds of sawdust.

Duet
Zeitgenössischer Zirkus
Duet

The pedals rotate around the wheels, the wheels rotate around the space and envelop the spectators in a unique vortex. Imbalance and the search for balance take centre stage here. The circle in which the two artistic cyclists revolve is drawn ever tighter. "Duet" leaves any form of linear narrative behind, driven by the conviction that circus and dance owe no explanations.

Disco, Baby!
Tanz
Disco, Baby!

Dust off your most dazzling outfit and get carried away dancing to 70sdisco music. Here, performance and dance party merge in the style of Bal Moderne. Bal Moderne is aimed at people who have no professional dance training but still love to move. The principle is simple: professional dancers and choreographers teach the audience short movement sequences and then everyone dances together. Disco, baby!

Das Leben des Diogenes

Peter Trabner follows in the footsteps of the philosopher Diogenes of Sinope - he climbs into his barrel and takes out what our society throws away. What drives people in today's turbocapitalist age? Why do we get rid of surplus things only to accumulate new ones? Is what Diogenes demanded in ancient Greece still possible today - to renounce consumption? A solo full of improvisation talent and sparkling spontaneity.
