A WALK IN THE PARK
A subcutaneous journey through the Viktoriapark, guided by the last fly agaric of Kreuzberg, Peter Frost. We go to the park together and follow the prophets of the new plant. We follow the white rabbit, walk backwards without fear, talk to poets, visit the Forest of the Dead, search for grottos, sunken cherries, the robin walk and visit the branch that people cut off while sitting on. Cultivate purple customs, found speaker's corners, hear how the rain falls on leaves or meditate on the Himalaya, walk over broken glass and let us be guided blindly. We do everything, nothing. We can transform our lives and put everything together ourselves. When we predict it this way, it becomes true: We ourselves are the alchemists everyone has been searching for for centuries!

In times of a pandemic, joint walks are very high in popularity. For weeks in spring, they were the only way to experience the public together. At the same time, distance and fresh air keep the risk of infection as low as possible. And yet every encounter also involves risks. It can create understanding, warmth and intimacy, but sometimes also incomprehension and conflict. Encounters can lead to both closeness and distance.

During the festival, we invite artists and audiences to encounter each other on 1:1 walks, thus offering all those who are not yet drawn back to the theatre spaces with the opportunity for an immediate exchange. What drives us? In times of physical distancing, the dialogue with an unknown opens new perspectives on our relationships.
