God's Entertainment

For the season opening, the Austrian performance collective GOD’S ENTERTAINMENT will turn the theater space into a KONAK (Turkish: residence) of numerous peoples and confessions: a bubbling meeting space where not just the paths but also the swords of the Occident and Orient cross. God’s Entertainment, as a buffer, take on the interpreter’s role here. On the basis of Ivo Andric’s novel »Wesire und Konsuln«, in which the Balkans are described as the zone of the constant conflicts between the Orient and Occident, contexts and situations will be created in which identities are set in motion, guests turn into residents and vice versa.
