Learning from Jews and Jewish women at night
The Jewish festival of Shavuot memorializes the moment of „Matan Torah“ (the giving of the Torah), when deeply ingrained knowledge entered the human consciousness. Come sundown it’s tradition to collectively share knowledge until late in the night. We stay awake to learn from and debate each other.
This Shavuot, House of Diaspora is inviting everyone, Jews and Non-Jews, to become part of this collective and to turn the Münchner Kammerspiele into a place of learning from Jews.
In the Jewish year of 5785 we spend the whole night on – instead of in front of – the stage, which will be turned into a place of meeting and movement, with rugs, pillows and a tea kitchen, in a reference to Mizrachi and Sephardic Jewish cultures.
The artists will work with the audience in an immersive manner. One can, observe, participate or just listen.
*The workshops are conducted verbally in English. Much takes place without language or through gestures, voice and sound. Quiet help may be given to each other to translate.
Breaks are included in the timetable.
