Salon Ma ما | III. Edition: Was ist Dein WIR? Saba Alizadeh, Salome Dastmalchi & Patrick Khatami | curated by Modjgan Hashemian Musik, Szenische Momente & Surprise

In the organizer's words:

Mã ما means "we": not a fixed we, but an open, tentative one. A we that grows by doing things together.

The last evening of the three-part Salon Mã م ما series condenses into dialog, tension and collective intensity. Different impulses meet, friction and decisions are challenged.

Music, performance and conversation interweave to create a live situation that arises in the moment. Everyone brings an idea - something that they "always wanted to try out".

The third and final edition of Salon Mã ما will conclude with voices that have responded to an open call on the question "What is your we?".

Guests in the third edition are:

Actor, author and speaker Patrick Khatami studied acting at the Hochschule für Musik und Darstellende Kunst Frankfurt am Main from 1997 to 2001. Since 2017, he has been working closely with post theater, for which he is a co-author and performer - with appearances at Theater Rampe Stuttgart, TD Berlin and Dock 11. In addition to his stage work, Patrick Khatami is also a voice-over artist (for Studio Hamburg, among others) and has appeared in various television productions such as Tatort and the ZDF series Der Kriminalist and in cinema productions such as Wir schaffen das schon (Andreas Arnstedt).

Saba Alizadeh is one of the most influential voices in contemporary Iranian music and, as a Kamancheh virtuoso, combines neo-musique concrète with electro-acoustic and mixed-media composition. His works move between personal intimacy and political urgency and create dense, cinematic sound spaces. He is the founder of the Tehran platform "Noise Works" for experimental music and is also exhibited internationally as a photographer.

Salome Dastmalchi was born in Berlin and studied acting at the Bern University of the Arts from 2002 to 2006. In 2010, she played Katarina in a Basel production of Dämonen, in Das blaue, blaue Meer at Heimathafen Neukölln and in Die Fozen at Ballhaus Ost. She also made her debut as an author and director at HAU 3 with Mein Herz ist voller Hass - und das liebe ich. In April 2022, Salome Dastmalchi staged Identitti by Mithu Sanyal for the Staatstheater Darmstadt and was nominated as an up-and-coming artist in the 2022 yearbook of "Theater heute".
