Bitter Fields

Two people are sitting at two tables facing each other, both holding microphones. The man on the left is wearing a striped sweater and glasses. In front of him on the table is a laptop with some stickers on it. The woman on the right has short, purple hair and is speaking into her microphone. There is also a glass of water and some technical equipment on her table. The background is dark.
A man with gray hair and glasses stands in front of a microphone. He is wearing a green tracksuit with the number 024 and is holding a cardboard dummy of an old cell phone in his hand. In the background, another person is sitting at a table with a laptop and audio equipment. She is also wearing a green tracksuit with the number 046 and the background is covered in gold foil.
A stage with two tables to the left and right and a stool with a printer in the middle. In front of them are two people in green tracksuits, numbered 024 and 146, both holding microphones and appearing to be speaking or presenting. Behind them is a large wall of brown paper with various notes, pictures and drawings. On the right-hand side is written in large letters “FOR ALL IT IS NOT ENOUGH”. At the top center, a large doll's head face looks over the wall. In the foreground, the backs of an audience can be seen.
A stage with two tables on the left and right and a stool with a printer in the middle. Two people are leaning against one of the tables, facing each other and holding microphones. The person on the left is barefoot, wearing a striped sweater and gray pants and has one hand to his mouth. The person on the right has short, pink hair, is wearing a white T-shirt and gray trousers and is sitting with one leg on the table. On the tables are a bottle carton, different types of beer and a laptop. Gold curtains can be seen outside next to the tables.

les dramaturx

Bitter Fields

An activist research revue / Performance

“But it is the digressions cruelly reflecting capitalism’s battle of every man for himself which give the evening a dramaturgical twist that transcends the usual evening of political theatre. It is theoretically precise, clearly presented and well constructed. And it shows that everyone is involved.” Tobias Prüwer, nachtkritik, 4.7.2022

While researching the reasons for the worldwide rise of right-wing forces, a magazine falls into the hands of les dramaturx alias Lynn Takeo Musiol and Christian Tschirner, in which right-wing authors present a realistic picture of the climate crisis and at the same time reveal how they are benefitting from it. Les dramaturx ask whether there is really a connection between the strengthening of the political right and climate change – and come to the bitter realisation that they themselves are far more deeply involved than they would like to be.
