What do humans and plants have in common? At first glance we are very different, but if we look more closely, we have a lot in common: we grow, need the sun and are thirsty. Plants and humans both need to breathe. What does the breath of a plant feel and sound like? What is the rhythm of their movements? What does it sound like when plants touch each other? Do they talk to each other? The performers immerse themselves in the cosmos of plants and explore the way they move and unfold as they grow. Composer Jörg Ritzenhoff takes us into the sound world of plants and makes us experience the sounds of their growth.
“GREEN” is the first part of the series SPIELRÄUME, which deals with the interweavings of HUMAN-NATURE-ANIMAL-CITY-RURAL AREAS. The focus is on flora and its interrelations with humans. How do we perceive the green world of plants? Where else is “green” to be found? And how intertwined are we in this green world? All these questions resonate when the three performers explore the plant world before the eyes of the audience. Finally, “GREEN” will also be produced green and is dedicated to the topic of sustainability in the work process.

Come a little closer. Even closer. Super close. Can you feel our age? Can you taste our experiences? Do you desire our knowledge? Which body do you reveal to me?
In TEMPTATION, 10 performers aged over 55, move between lust and loss, flirtation and shame, pleasure and pain and create a statement on sexuality in old age(s) in biographical excerpts and physical snapshots. TEMPTATION embarks on a journey to stimulating, lost and obscure places and is dedicated to the visibility of individual pleasure in old age(s).

The affair between Monica Lewinsky and Bill Clinton, the “Nipple Gate” surrounding Janet Jackson and Justin Timberlake, Gina Lisa’s light-hearted “Zack, the bean!” and the rape allegations years later. The stories of these three women and their public shaming have remained in the minds of many thanks to the media attention. But how is female shame dealt with in public? The performers of KONNECTIVE address this question – with relish, aesthetically and with great physical commitment.
