Nikolaus Gerszewski and Diego Chamy at Stralau 68

The idiot shouts something that has to be shouted to be hidden and something else becomes invisible in order to be able to be seen. That’s the theme of the performance. Someone is spastic and comes from Africa (not the continent). One of them is desperate but you don’t notice who. In the middle she makes yellow birds out of paper and a lot of people imagine that they fly. This never happens but happens two times, and it’s not irritating because it stops before. It’s about these thresholds of intensity in which once they are crossed, they give in return a different idea. All this is present-day. But how do you know they are not rehearsing?
