OVERDOSE. THE UNFINISHED SHOW OF PAIN AND JOY
boat people projekt, Collective Ma‘louba, kainkollektiv
A wide stage populated by a group of people. In the centre of the room an oracle, which they all serve. Can the oracle help? Can it give them answers to their questions? Seven performers, three languages and some pain and pleasure – a polyphonic streaming performance in Arabic, English and German. The project was realised over a period of 12 months through the co-operation of the three collectives and a diverse group of artists from Syria and Germany.
