“See you in sepia blue”: theater performance from the GADAG-Lab

In einer Welt, in der sich Wolken in sandigem Orange türmen und der gestiegene Meeresspiegel einstige Grenzen ins Landesinnere verschoben hat, begegnen sich Tayo und Kami unerwartet wieder. Beide hatten damals die Welt hinter sich gelassen, auf die sie sich einst verständigt hatten. Beide taten, was sie für richtig hielten und müssen sich nun doch gegenseitigen Vorwürfen stellen. Es knistert in der Luft, denn in der Welt, in der sie aufeinander treffen, regnet es nicht mehr. 
Eine futuristisch-dystopische Theater-Performance zu Verlust, Entfremdung und Erinnerung. "Wir sehen uns in sepiablau" wurde im Rahmen des 5-wöchigen GADAG Artist Lab entwickelt – geschrieben, inszeniert und performt von: Anika Baluran Schäfer, Thủy-Tiên Nguyễn, Quang Nguyễn-Xuân, Việt Đức Phạm, mit Sound Art von HIỀN ĐIÊN.

"Post/Origins of a Woman" by Min Yoon (Guest Performance)

A satirical butoh dance piece of rebellion of the body … reminiscent of divisions, war, bodies, memories slipping through, holding on to a quiet power within attacks, waiting to start a new movement between two scores, trapped in an infinite loop, breaths in a chokehold, typhoons, desert, a hand longing, millions of lives, dissociating beyond // For Your Comfort ... ... ...
In the images of war that flood our consciousness, searching to reprocess and reroute in the present irreconcilable loops. In honor of, reclamation for 위안부 “comfort woman” the victims of sexual violence by the Japanese Imperial Army.
in a structured improvisation
