Herbstcamp – “Deine Geschichte zählt“

You've experienced something. Or inherited something. Or questions in your head that nobody asks. Now we're starting a theater project that begins with you. Your story, your voice, your imagination. Together we'll dive into memories, invent scenes, tell stories, sometimes loudly, sometimes quietly. Come and join us! Sometimes remembering begins with understanding our own story.

How did you become who you are? What stories are told in your family? What do you know about your grandparents and great-grandparents? Do they have memories of the Second World War or another war? And what does this have to do with us? We will visit the exhibition “The Third Generation” at the Jewish Museum and work together on texts that connect the big story with family history. Bring us a few stories from home!

How can we remember what happened 80 years ago? What did the destroyed Munich look like in 1945 and can we still find traces of it today? How do you rebuild a city? How do you rebuild a society? What role can theatre play in this? We go in search of traces and develop our material from them. We visit places around the theatre. Using artistic means from dance, theatre, music and film, we will make the stories of 1945 and our own thoughts about them visible.
