Three theater groups, in which people with and without disabilities perform together, are presenting their current productions at the Kulturhafen
Three theater groups, in which people with and without disabilities perform together, will present their current productions. Inspired by Don Quixote, Frankenstein, and The Bremen Town Musicians, they explore themes of courage, resistance, humanity, and the question of how change can come about.
3:00 p.m. to 3:45 p.m. – QUICHOTTE, HOW TO SAVE THE WORLD, presented by the theater group “Die Verzauberten” from Circus Fantasia
What do you do when the world falls apart? When bad news overwhelms us—do we just brush it off and carry on? Or do we stand up, dream, and fight?
In their new production, *Quichotte*, the theater group *Die Verzauberten* embarks on a poetic, comical, and touching journey through fantasy and reality. Loosely inspired by the character of Don Quixote, the ensemble tells the story of a man who decides to become a knight—not out of duty, but out of hope.
4:00 p.m. to 4:45 p.m. – ANTI-CHEF-FRAKTION presented by Theaterbande from Göttingen
The Theaterbande (Göttingen) has been developing its own inclusive theater productions for over ten years. In their current play, they draw inspiration from *The Bremen Town Musicians* and tell the story of people who lose their jobs from one day to the next. But instead of letting themselves be discouraged, they come up with bold plans together. With humor, music, and a lot of enthusiasm, they create a story about work, solidarity, and the power to take control of one’s own destiny.
5:00 p.m. to 5:45 p.m. – FrankenstAIn – Worlds of Sound presented by the theater group “Die Eckigen” from Göttingen
Die Eckigen bring Mary Shelley’s Frankenstein into the present day. Set in the near future on the Vorpommern Bodden coast, they explore what happens when humanity crosses the boundaries of what is possible. With impressive choral arrangements, experimental soundscapes, and powerful imagery, the production explores humanity, responsibility, and the consequences of our actions.
6:00 p.m. to 6:45 p.m. – Post-performance discussion
Following the performances, we invite the audience and cast members to a public post-show discussion. Actors from the three ensembles will discuss the themes at the heart of their plays, as well as art, society, work, disability, and the power of collective action.
Starting at 7:00 p.m., we’ll wrap up the evening with a group karaoke session.
