theatercombinat | june 2001 SIEBEN - a 7 days and nights long reading by the population of mühlviertel from the old testament in seven villages, festival der regionen (a)

sprache/language: deutsch, english

   

in «7» we want to open our theatrical work; to continue with our occupation with «mythological» texts, with time, with «spectators», duration, speach and spatial situations. we will try to establish a creative organism between readers and places, as well as controversial places.

we are interested in producing theatrical situations where capacities, passions, power relations and oppositions become transparent, attackable. is it possible to re-construct a
«concept of the social» by offering a «communitarian» situation like the readings in mühlviertel? the situation operates with the collision of a complex and maybe dangerous text, seemingly well-known, a dogma, sacred for many, thought of as «unreadable». none of the readers is prepared, none can know beforehand what part he will read. by chronological reading, chance will decide the meeting of text and biography of the readers. it is not a spectacle. the situation depends on the ones who read – and the ones who don’t.
