Julia
Christiane Jatahy
Adaptation of Miss Julie by August Strindberg
The Brasilian film and theatre director Christiane Jatahy creates a scenic piece that challenges time and space, in which the team films and edits in real time. In Julia, Strindberg’s classic social drama is transported to contemporary Brasil where Julia, from a hip upper-class enclave in Rio, falls head-over-heels for the family driver. It is intimate, physical and brutal. Experience Strindberg’s Miss Julie in an entirely new way!

Gustavia
Mathilde Monnier & La Ribot
More than thirty years as performing artists have moulded Mathilde Monnier from France and La Ribot from Spain into icons in their respective genres. Together they created Gustavia which draws on the world of classic burlesque. Using mime, slapstick and role-reversal, they explore the timeless classical subjects such as womanhood, death and theater. It is comic, absurd and avant-garde.

Dream Mandé-Djata
Rokia Traoré
Rokia Traoré moves skillfully between acoustic folk music from Mali and rock-riffing tuareg blues, jazz and pop. Her albums are praised by critics and she tours the world in a variety of constellations. In Dream Mandé-Djata she mounts the stage as a story-teller in a performance based on Griot, the ancient West African narrative tradition. Experience a beautiful, poetic and personal musical performance.

By: Henrik Ibsen (adaption by Florian Borchmeyer)
Direction: Thomas Ostermeier
Schaubühne Berlin is considered one of the most outstanding stages in Europe for contemporary theatre. This year the company brings us Thomas Ostermeier’s version of Ibsen’s dark satire, An Enemy of the People, seething with topical references. How are truth and fake truths valued in our current political context?
