Are You Ready?

ARE YOU READY?

Climate change is now! - Performance

There is a gulf between what we know and what we do. And when we act, what do we achieve?

With a ritual performance on the market square, TheatreFragile paves the way out of this contradictory position: with song, dance, physical theatre and mask play, five performers invite the audience to experience denial, anger, negotiation, grief and acceptance.
ARE YOU READY? is a joyful, hopeful act that takes the audience with it - from the experience of loss to a communal upswing.
Voices of people who are committed to climate protection or talk about their inner conflicts are heard through vocal collages and songs. The choir, which has fallen silent due to coronavirus, sets itself in motion despite the silence. The masks evoke the archetypal figures of Gaia and women from all continents who fight tirelessly for change.
