Pussy Riot: Riot Days

"We have a voice. We have a choice" (Maria Alyokhina).

Following their sold-out German premiere in 2017, the Russian political punk group Pussy Riot are returning to Künstler*innenhaus Mousonturm with their rebellious stage show "Riot Days".

The performance project is based on Maria Alyokhina's book of the same name, in which she tells her personal story as part of Pussy Riot, from the beginnings of the rebellious group in 2011, through their legendary performances, their arrest, the trial and their stay in a Siberian prison camp to their release in 2013. A feminist punk manifesto, a powerful anarchist plea for resistance in a right-wing populist, nationalist world. It is a story about resistance, oppression and revolution in the form of an anarchic mixture of concert, rally, theater and political happening.
