DER ELEFANT IM RAUM
A new play about collective responsibility for climate change
Stage, costume and video design
Developed together with Theater Chemnitz Studio
Premiere online on 29 May 2021 in 2D and VR streaming
There's a fat, pink elephant in the middle of the room. You somehow try to ignore it as best you can. Using the metaphor of the “elephant in space”, we approach one of the most pressing issues of our time: climate change. We all know the facts and figures - but what feelings does this future perspective trigger in us? How do we deal with these facts? Why do we tend to procastinate on this subject in particular? And is a pink plastic elephant even allowed on stage – well, evil is often very banal.
Concept and development together with Maja Grahnert, Liza Mattiuzzo, Gabriel Tauber, Tina Hübner, Morris Weckherlin and Lauretta van de Merwe
Designed in collaboration with Tina Hübner
Dramaturgy by Kathrin Brune
With support of the workshops of Chemnitz Theatres
