Der performative Riss

"Der performative Riss" brings together poetry and prose by Osnabrück authors and places them in a shared space of sound and movement. Some texts are spoken unchanged, word for word, with the rupture created solely through the music that surrounds them. Other texts are deliberately reworked, shortened, remixed, or collaged. Still others almost entirely abandon language: they are interpreted, commented on, and developed through dance and composition - the text as a starting point for an independent choreographic and musical response.
