How do You Say Goodbye from Hsynien Wei

It takes courage and breath to speak up – Eleni Kamma

The video reflects upon the term ?parrhesia?, which implies not only freedom of speech, but also the obligation to speak the truth for the common good, even at personal risk. The camera moves in circles, choreographing and at the same time registering three performers around a microphone trying to ?breath? theater as public space. They come together as a group, but also depart from it, following their own individual rhyme. To speak your mind, you must first overcome fear by taking a deep breath.

Self-portrait – Ana Mendes

?Self-portrait? is a play about my identity. Over the years, I collected my personal records (medical examinations, radiographies, vaccines etc.) and considered the role that heritage plays in our lives. It could be interrogative, an inquiry, or even a manifesto against all the questionnaires that we have to answer during our lives. But it is not these things. It is just a self-portrait, perhaps an automatic self-portrait.

How do You Say Goodbye – Hsynien Wei

How Do You Say Goodbye is a participatory game that invites the audience to share with the other the people/object/memory they would like to say goodbye to. A gesture will later on be performed.
The game will continue

Room Service

Room Service is the latest exploratory music project of David Ender (bass guitar, stuff), Elisabeth Flunger (percussion) and Peter Panayi (guitar). The trio comes from different musical backgrounds but has been working together in duos, trios, and various large ensembles since the 1990s, e.g., in the performance group Damen-Improvisation & Herren-BIGbäng, the blues/rock trio Baitrunner, as party band with Gert Hühnerbrand & Gretl Uebenflaihs, and in the project YOO DOO RIGHT with Jack Hauser and Karlheinz Essl.
