Let us surprise you

This year, the popular Incubator 2024 will once again take place at the Rote Fabrik. Established theatre makers and newcomers from all disciplines will be given the opportunity to present a stage-ready short play lasting a maximum of twelve minutes. With seven completely different artistic styles, approaches and statements, the platform becomes an inspiring grab bag. You should definitely not miss this stage experience in all its wonderful diversity!

Do without?

What can't we do without? What do we not want to do without? Is doing without always something unpleasant or a gain? Inspired by the book Verbot und Verzicht by Philipp Lepenie, Tabea Martin takes up these topical questions in her choreography Goodbye Stracciatella and communicates them to a young audience in a playful way. The performers hold up a mirror to themselves and the audience and ask whether we are all prepared to give up. The play is recommended for children aged 6 and over, but is certainly just as relevant and worth seeing for adults.
