Alle spielen

In the organizer's words:

Do you fancy a game? Do you like playing cards, role-playing games or do you prefer playing with dice? Do you play strategically, competitively or leave everything to chance? How do people fulfill norms and expectations in order to maintain their social status and identity or how do they circumvent them in order to redefine themselves? Which games do people play in everyday life for fun, and which to navigate their social environment and construct their identity? Choreographer Magda Korsinsky examines the importance of social games as an essential part of social interaction throughout life and questions people's social roles. What challenges do people have to face in order to live authentically, depending on their socialization and different experiences of discrimination? Magda Korsinsky develops a documentary choreographic theater that is critical of discrimination, cross-generational and playful, in which the audience's joy of playing is activated. Alle spielen shows the universal need to play through struggle, transformation, repetition, curiosity, excitement and joy.
