deufert&plischke: Liebestod – Sophiensæle | Independent Theater in Berlin
Program
deufert&plischke:
Liebestod
Liebestod
Love is one of the strongest feelings that someone can develop for another person. It can trigger violence, conflicts and even wars, but it’s also an essential motor of art. In their new project, Liebestod, deufert&plischke are interested in love stories as epic explosives for human relationship. Central to the project is a communal writing aiming to take in as many voices as possible. The Berlin-based artist duo will uncover stories that will be turned into love songs by Rasha Nahas and Alain Franco and sung during the performance.
