Treffpunkt: Jüdenstraße is the second iteration of Dialectics of Departure, a series by Ariel Efraim Ashbel and Rachel Libeskind about the history of Jewish performativity embedded in the streets of Berlin. This performative walk takes the audience through Mitte, encountering multilayered stories, offering new perspectives on Jewish histories and futurisms, and concluding in a special birthday kiddush at Sophiensæle. The event is part of The Omer Count, a citywide cycle of springtime events that explore the potential of Jewish traditions for contemporary dramaturgies.

By and with: Ariel Efraim Ashbel, Rachel Libeskind.

A production by Ariel Efraim Ashbel & friends, funded by the Senate Department for Culture and Social Cohesion.

There will be no access to toilets at the meeting point of the walk. The toilets at Sophiensæle can be used at the end point.
