This event is part of UN:IMAGINABLE - our histories in conversation

UN:IMAGINABLE is one remarkable theater production resulting from lived realities of trauma, war, segregation and exile. In the 1990s the conflicts in Rwanda and the Balkans shattered the world and remain recorded as two of the bloodiest events in modern history. However, testimonies and stories continue to this day. Many have fled their home country and some have reached Germany, a space glorified as paradise. 

Society is stuck in suppressed fear and hatred leading to further conflicts while in denial of histories untold. UN:IMAGINABLE mirrors the banality of evil and its connection to everyday, mundane life and deals with the hour before death in the lives of victims and perpetrators. 

World Premiere: 18 May, at 18.00 p.m. (Reception) / 19.30 p.m. (Performance)

Additional performances: 

19 May, 19.00 p.m. (Doors) / 19.30 p.m. (Performance)

UN:IMAGINABLE is produced by Oyoun Berlin, Mashirika Performing Arts and Media Company Rwanda and the Sarajevo War Theater Bosnia-Herzegovina.

Supported in the fund TURN2 the Federal Cultural Foundation and the Federal Government Commissioner for Culture and the Media as well as by the Heinrich Böll Foundation.

ABOUT

Sonic In(ter)ventions

Sonic In (ter) ventions is a jam session. As cultural workers responding to the times with community building, Out of Time Embassy (OOTE) consciously meld together sound and healing to form sessions of high-energy improvisation. Spaces are reimagined as interactive meditation sites for historical excavation, archival protest, and creative processing. Open and free artistic expressions are cultivated with an intention of decentralizing and celebrating the knowledge production process through action based art forms such as dance and music.

Out Of Time Embassy

OOTE is a collective that emerged out of a pure necessity to create and build community. It is a multicultural group of curators producing conversation and curiosity about art and culture and civic engagement, meditating on local and global impacts of cultural work. OOTE embodies an international unity for seemingly disparate worlds, building bridges and creating safe (r) spaces for expression to be cultivated and nurtured. Together, we produce outdoor concerts such as Sonic In (ter) ventions, a weekly ritual, which organically curated itself in the wake of the BLM protest and amidst the global pandemic.
