ACT

I never leave the house without a battery. I plan the way back before I even set off. I think carefully about what I wear. I keep an eye on my drink. I don't walk home alone in the evening. I avoid certain stops. I share my location. Just to be on the safe side. I take an extra look around. And as a woman, I'm the problem! Feminism is too radical, too exaggerated, too uncomfortable, too demanding?

For us - 18 performers - feminism is not just a word. It affects us. Every day. For us, it means enlightenment, equality, struggle, support, self-determination, freedom and hope. And it means being strong, standing up, being loud, not giving up and standing up for women's rights, for our rights! Because the patriarchy is fucking us over. Over and over and over again. That's why we have to speak up. Now!
We invite you to an interactive performance in a bar. Grab a drink, listen to us and fight with us!
