Turbo Pascal: Böse Häuser – Sophiensæle | Independent Theater in Berlin
Turbo Pascal:
Böse Häuser
Böse Häuser
In the coming hour, think completely egotistically! Believe in your superiority over others and over animals! Try to see non-believers in the people around you. Tell yourself repeatedly: everything is a matter of perspective!
In Böse Häuser Turbo Pascal stages a thought experiment with the audience and themselves: experiments in rethinking and thinking differently, in strengthening or reversing doctrines, in entering or exiting different and possibly evil conceptual worlds.

Turbo Pascal develops interactive performances that turn the theater into a meeting and negotiation space for social processes, dynamics and utopias. The collective also realizes participatory projects with citizens who, due to their biographies, bring contradictory perspectives into play and conceives formats for discussions and encounters. The collective works continuously with the Sophiensæle, Theater an der Parkaue and Bürger:Bühne am Staatsschauspiel Dresden. Performances have been invited to numerous festivals in German-speaking countries (including Impulse Theater Festival, Politik im Freien Theater). Turbo Pascal was awarded the George Tabori Prize in 2018.
