OUTside
14:00 I YUNIK – conference für cultural education, Leipzig, Germany
We live in challenging times. Societies are closing themselves off to feel safe. One of the main reasons is fear of the unknown, fear of things we don’t understand. We stop communicating and prefer to hide and ignore everything that our brain cannot process. The spectrum of our creativity and imagination is the mechanism that defines where the limit of our understanding lies. How could the creative thinking of society be stimulated and developed?
After an introduction to the topic “The Potentials of the Arts for Cultural Education” by Prof. Dr. Birgit Mandel, Alexandar Hadjiev and Lisa Siomicheva will present their current projects and open a conversation about the social aspects of collaboration.

obscure
19:00 I R.Raum für drastische Maßnamen, Berlin, Germany
obscure is a durational installation that combines tangible objects, sound and a virtual NFT representation of the concept that lingers between the visible and the invisible, the real and the fictional.
It is a big room with three rows of desks, a portrait of the Leader on the wall behind the teacher’s chair, a map with two hemispheres, of which only one is legal. The little boy takes his seat, opens his briefcase, puts his pen and notebook on the desk, lifts his face, and prepares himself to hear drivel.
Joseph Brodsky, Less Than One, 1976
Ksenia Ravvina / Mihaela Dobreva / Alexandar Hadjiev

Knall und Schall im All (Children Concert)
16:00 I Philharmonie Köln, Germany
Luzie wakes up and hardly believes her eyes: she is no longer in her cozy bed, but floats somewhere in the vastness of space! That’s out of step because the sun has gone. But only this one can help Luzie get back home. Together with the celestial dog Laika, Luzie sets out and encounters dancing stars on the winding paths of the Milky Way, a foul-hearted gentleman named Ludwig van Beethoven and other curious creatures.
In the staged children’s concert, the young and old are taken interactively across the universe into a universe full of fantastic and wondrous sounds. Masterpieces of the 20th century and the world premiere of a work by composer Vassos Nicolauo can be experienced as well as the ad hoc improvised sound collage of our young audience. The space adventure can begin!

In A Real Tragedy, It Is Not The Heroine Who Dies; It Is The Chorus(Premiere)
20:30 I Deutsches Theater Berlin, Germany
For centuries, artists have been silenced for their beliefs and their art. This evening gives these stories a voice. Following the strong female figures of Greek tragedy, we primarily let them speak, developing a polyphony of voices. For it is not the death of the individual hero that is the real tragedy, but the death of the chorus – of the community. Drawing from the “theatrical case” legal trial surrounding the production of A Midsummer Night’s Dream directed by Kirill Serebrennikov in Russia and the revolutionary movement in Belarus, a multimedia work of fiction/documentary theatre is created. Focusing particularly on the women who are fighting for visibility and solidarity, the discrimination, hushing and violent erasure of artists is explored.
Director and Autor: Ksenia Ravvina; Music/Sound Design: Alexandar Hadjiev; Videodesign and Posterdesign: Daniel Hughes; Lights: Iana Boitcova; Dramaturgy: Tina Ebert; Production: Federico Vöcks de Schwindt, Francesca Spisto; Videoassistance: Rocio Rodriguez
