How do we talk about memory and historical responsibility? And about the sometimes contradictory “odd” emotions they both produce? ‘10 Odd Emotions’ is a polyphonic artistic investigation of the present and genealogy of anti-Semitic and racist violence in Germany that makes language, music, bodies and images dance. It is a piece of contemporary Physical Theatre developed through an international collaboration between Schauspiel Frankfurt, the Dresden Frankfurt Dance Company, and freelance artists under the direction of Saar Magal. It examines experiences of belonging and exclusion. How is a “foreign body” – one that is ostracized, oppressed – created from the midst of a supposed collective “we”?
Introduction on 14.7. at 19:00 in the Panorama Bar.
