Feierlichkeiten zur Beerdigung des Kapitalismus

In the organizer's words:

"We would like to announce that yesterday, after a long illness, capitalism passed away peacefully. We would like to invite you to a memorial service to celebrate the passing of an economic and social system that has divided opinion. But we now know that we must say goodbye and plan a new future, for ourselves, for future generations and for the planet."

In this immersive theater experience, there will be space to let go, space for sadness and space to celebrate. With elements of theater, dance and music, Celebrating the Funeral of Capitalism is a performative ritual that turns into a communal celebration. Because if we cry together, we can also dance together. When we eat together, we can start talking about how we want to live together.
