In the piece, which is both music theatre and dance performance, the audience itself becomes part of a living sound installation. Electronic sounds emanate from their own mobile phone loudspeakers, which change depending on the distance to the performers and merge into a single collective body of sound.

TO ALL emerging DANCE ARTISTS BASED IN BERLIN
Every new year, the Tanztage Berlin is not only the city's very first festival, it has also established itself nationally and internationally as an important platform for emerging dance artists since its founding in 1996. The next edition of Tanztage Berlin will once again take place under the artistic direction of Mateusz Szymanówka. The festival is currently planned for 5-21 January 2023 - however, the form as well as the exact date will depend on the constant reassessment of the pandemic. The festival offers emerging dance artists based in Berlin a framework for their new productions and revivals. The programme of the last two editions can be found at: https://tanztage-berlin.sophiensaele.com.
For two weeks THE FUTURE IS F*E*M*A*L*E* will transform the Sophiensaele into a Feminist-Utopian community for all – women*, trans*, inter* and men*. The festival creates a platform for Berlin-based and international artists, and invites all to examine feminist issues and topics: aesthetically and with humor, spectacularly and unspectacularly – but always together.
We want to make you laugh until you cry! We want to get your opinions and see your dance moves! We want to practice boxing, learn together, discuss and drink schnaps or lemonade with you! With performances, action-packed club nights, theater, dance, stand-up comedy, lectures, workshops and parties we want to create a space for various feminist stances. We look forward to seeing you!
