Wer nicht weiter weiß, hat recht

In the organizer's words:

Making oneself accessible as a critique of capitalism

Anyone who knows what to do on their own has not understood the crisis. And perhaps still believe that the world is a stage for egocentric self-assertion. Nothing disturbs our togetherness as much as the capitalist command to produce oneself as something special.

The actors of this evening resist the patriarchal gesture of flooding spaces with their own self-totalization. They are looking for a place where they can feel post-identical through relational care. But how is this possible when the structures we use to inflict violence on ourselves also lie within us?

The production explores what it could mean to allow oneself to be questioned in a trauma-sensitive way in order to become a self despite power structures. Our own critique of narcissism as an embodied critique of capitalism. What needs to happen for the feeling of being lost to be transformed into collective and relational concern?

In a round dance of language destruction and reconstruction, musical trance and light arena, the production opens up an atmospheric space for discourse between abstraction and closeness in order to mark the ideological grammars of disconnectedness and to search for subversive aesthetics against the traumatic compulsion to repeat. An escape from an overly complex world through the radical recognition of one's own forlornness: those who know no further are right!

"Anyone who wants to leave the pressure of capitalist self-optimization behind and embark on an aesthetically subversive journey will be thrilled."
