As part of Never Work - International Performance Festival
Discourse
Festsaal
Language: English
Approx. 1 h 30 min.

Over two days, the festival's artistic program is accompanied by a series of lectures and discussions. The first day looks at a possible future and asks what a "post-work" society might look like - a world where work is organized very differently and no longer sits at the center of our identity or social structure.

The second day turns to the realities of today's working world under capitalism, contemporary class society, and the divisions that wage labor creates - as well as the potential of resistant laziness and some unexpected alliances.

Never Work - International Performance Festival is a festival by Sophiensæle, supported by the Hauptstadtkulturfonds. Sophiensæle is supported by the Senate Department for Culture and Social Cohesion. Media partners: Berlin Art Link, Missy Magazine, Siegessäule, taz.
