The earth is lost. In the wasteland of a terrifyingly real future after the great catastrophe, it's high time to make a run for it. So if you have a spaceship, you can count yourself lucky - but before Mike Tango, Sierra Sierra, Charlie Golf and Mandy Lemon can make their escape, the ship and on-board computer have to play along again. But on closer inspection, they turn out to be surprisingly headstrong and lively...
Defekt (UA) is a commissioned work in cooperation with the Staatstheater Kassel. The Istanbul composer Mithatcan Öcal is regarded as one of the greatest international talents in contemporary music. He stands for strong musical concepts along great traditional lines and musical logics of his own in a radical large-scale form that is deliberately anti-eclectic. The text for the space opera was written by the interdisciplinary artist cylixe, who will also be responsible for the videos for the production. Her works move across the visual arts and through a wide variety of media, along social and political fault lines, through human networks and realities, across continents - and for this commissioned work even through space and time.
