Past dates

HYDROSPEKTIVE is a fluid festival on the Alster that invites you to seven evenings of concerts, readings and performances on the water. But this is no ordinary "lake stage", as many provincial theaters around the globe celebrate with proudly swollen chests. Au contraire!

For the first time in the history of the Hanseatic city, not only the actors are on the water, trying to cut a reasonably good figure - you as spectators will also experience the performances in canoes provided by us or rubber boats brought along by you, in, on and hopefully above sea level. Here it is a matter of cleverly dividing energy and attention between the performances on offer and the epic battle against the tides of the oceans. Or it will be as we hope, and you, dear guests, will find yourselves in front of our floating stage for the dramatic sunset after a small but all the more exhilarating paddling excursion on the Alster. There, our emcee Manuel Muerte, the fanfare of magic, welcomes you and instructs you charmingly and nonchalantly about the specifics of the circumstances before the respective performances begin.
