Meine Damen und Herren / Gob Squad

“Up until now, you’ve thought of us as always being cheerful, kind and grateful. But we’re angry. And it’s important that you know this…”. In a brilliant collaboration, the Hamburg-based group Meine Damen und Herren is teaming up with the performance collective Gob Squad, making the powerful emotion of “anger” the driving force behind their first joint production. “Calm down! Hold your breath! Count to ten!” Why aren’t we allowed to be angry, even though there’s every reason to be? When is anger a driving force, and when is it best to count to ten first?
