GUEST: to be brutally honest 2.0
Jessica Piasecki / Samuli Emery

To be brutally honest, it is a saturated and pathetic limbo in which one attempts to activate a difficult, beloved, violence-prone body into revolutionary positions

The working group understands the performance as a laboratory. In this laboratory, they try to trample the bourgeois and capitalist stage for two millennia with joy and transparency, practicing uncensored corporeality, care, joy and love. The work invites the audience to be part of a shared powerful ceremony, to make their subversive art and to open their hearts.

Pay what you can: pay a lot if you can, pay less if you can’t! The money from this performance goes directly to the artists and form their performance fees. The recommended price for a normal ticket is 26 €. Feel free to support us with a larger amount if you can afford it! 😉 The idea behind pay-what-you-can is to ensure that the price of tickets does not prevent anyone from seeing the performance. <3
