5.00 pm: „In dubio pro Satan“
When we think about our bodies, we notice how they seem almost as restrictive as the walls of a house. Demons possess the body like illnesses. They are crises, deep wounds, oddities. What some might perceive as a psychosis, others may see as recurring demons.

6.00 pm: „Sächsisch lernen am Vorabend“
Also in this year, the actors Max Böttcher and Johanna Engel, both born and raised in Saxony, invite the West-German audience to a crash-course: "Sächsisch lernen am Vorabend".
In this course through collective speech training in a choir as well as entertaining conversation exercises, an empathetic and critical community emerges that goes beyond "Vita Cola", "Rotkäppchen" sparkling wine and "Tote Oma". In learning together, we find a profound
all-German discussion that the audience can carry out with and on themselves.

Text und Performance: Max Böttcher and Johanna Engel

7.30 pm: „TEIRESIAS“
with artistic audio description

In the darkness, in the forest and at the fire we meet Teiresias. In the Antique, Teiresias was considered a blind visionary and prophet. Otherwise a minor character at the side of various Greek heroes, here he tells his own story firstly and explores how our visually centered culture and our imagination are influenced by blindness.

8.30 pm: „Giacometti’s Figure“
In “Giacometti’s Figure” Vicente Antunes Ramos revisits the story of his mother’s depression and her repeated suicide attempts throughout his childhood. Based on a long interview he conducted with her, he looks for ways to choreograph this story, to narrate it from the pieces of memory he has, from the traces he has in his hands. This project is a continuation of Vicente‘s artistic research on the use of documents on stage. In “Giacometti's figure”, this research takes an autobiographical turn – a new occurrence in his trajectory so far.

10.00 pm: „All the Clothes of a Life in the World“
A dance performance for costume and body

„All the Clothes of a Life in the World“ is a choreography for costume and body, exploring the complex material and social relationships between clothing and those, that wear them.
A costume designer and a dancer – sometimes allies, sometimes enemies – play in an empire of intertwinements with materials and movement. Angela Carter's text "The Tiger's Bride" (1979), a feminist re-telling of "The Beauty and the Beast", offers the entry point to discover Belle's deliberate and subversive transformation with the help of costume-dramaturgical methods and thereby question binary concepts of human-animal and nature-culture relationships.
