Joint storytelling in times of the pandemic: SOS! WE NEED YOUR INPUT! supply the ingredients NOW , later we pick up the pieces, (pictures / sentences / favorite hero or villain) and they will be the stuff, Sheherazade’S stories are made of. A unique performance with and without in words, music – stories told with objects, hand and feet, in pictures, via live stream and “for real”.
please send your input via email to sachs-film@web.de: What’s your favorite book/movie? and how does it beginn? what was the last sentence you found in a Chinese fortune cookie? Or whats the name of your favourite Restaurant? which super-hero or teenage idol would you love to meet waiting infront of a Bakery during Corona-time? In which situation did you (you or someone you know) have your last outburst?
Also welcome: photos of your favourite corner in your flat, the view from your window; or pictures of objects that can play a key role in our scenes – whether as corpus delicti or object of desire.
The ensemble is looking forward to the preceding phase of material collection and to any kind of inspiration! We use your input and Sheherazades story begins. Will she reach the audiance abroad? In The VIP-Box the SUltan is seated, listening to Sheherazade’s story. Apart from the audiance via zoom and youtube, there is the sultan listening – in our Szenario played by Deeb Abu ELqumssan, in Gaza. Will Sheherazade’s stories reach his ear, will she find the right words (though speaking a foreign language) or find the right items to buildt a universe of projection and objecttheater?
The event will take place as a live stream. We will welcome you in our virtual foyer on Zoom before the performance and invite you to an audience discussion with the artists after the stream. You will receive the access link by e-mail on the day of the event. To participate, you must download the Zoom software and agree to its privacy policy.
