14. to 23.06.
A long time ago, a group of free women lived, worked and fought on the shores of the Black Sea. They founded a community without men and called themselves the Amazons.
How did this come about? And why did the male heroes of antiquity react so aggressively? Equipped with Lego figures, landscape models, live video and protest images from the internet, a storyteller sets off on the trail of the myth and stages a contemporary version for children aged between six and twelve. Unaccompanied by adults, "AMAZONEN" initiates an open dialogue between children of the same age about central questions of our time: Is it justified to use violence to defend ourselves against external attacks? How far can or should we go to defend our own opinions and protest against (gender) injustice? Who are the Amazons of our time? And what does all this have to do with the Amazon?
ATTENTION: THIS PERFORMANCE IS FOR CHILDREN ONLY!
While the children experience the theatre, think together with the performer about what this story has to do with them and how they would decide, we recommend that accompanying adults visit our café or the museums in the area. Teachers may be present.
The German-language version is a co-production of Wiener Festwochen, Dschungel Wien, SCHÄXPIR Theatre Festival for Young Audiences (Linz), Schlachthaus Theater Bern (CH), TAK Theatre Liechtenstein and euro-scene Leipzig (DE).
