Check his facebook profile! Never has it been easier to get information on another person, a casual acquaintance, a new love or an old love’s new love. But what do we find there? And what is it worth? And how much do we really find out about the person behind the profile, the network, the Google image search? How much information is good, how little is useful? It sounds pretty philosophical, but essentially it’s about something quite fundamental. In an increasingly media-oriented world in which information, securities, insecurities and drama are only a mouse click away, we often want to know more and more details. What we find reinforces our hopes or fears, leads us astray and creates truths in a digital parallel universe. What do we know about each other? What should we know? And how much “knowledge” is too much? ‚Die Stunde, da wir zu viel voneinander wussten‘ by the fabulous Berlin theatre ensemble Nico and the Navigators is exploring these questions on three evenings from August 12th to 14th in the Radialsystem in Berlin as its eight performers take a closer look at absurd encounters, tragicomic everyday heroes and their desperate attempts at communication. With newly interpreted songs by artists from Bonnie „Prince“ Billy to Benjamin Britten, the foul-body-poets navigated by Nicola Hümpel take on the rhythm of life determined by coincidences and rules. Who am I and if so, how many? The answer is definitely yes and ideally two. Because we’re giving away two pairs of tickets for the performance on Saturday. Send us an email headlining ‚AVATAR‘ to hurra@muxmaeuschenwild.de. By the way, you’re invited to stay for a panel discussion respectively closing lecture, served with a side of culinary highlights and stiff drinks on the Seeterasse. The tickets cost between 14 and 24 Euros and are worth every penny.
