Think binge-watching, but live and up close. In Nesterval's productions, the audience follows individual characters through a sprawling series of scenes - like a camera weaving through an elaborate film set, the storytelling pulls you across different narrative threads and spaces. The Vienna-based queer folk-theatre troupe makes their Berlin debut with Nestervals Eldorado, a site-specific work created for Sophiensæle. At its heart is the queer history of Berlin's Scheunenviertel district and the area around Sophiensæle during the Nazi dictatorship. Drawing on the biographies of gay, lesbian, bisexual and trans* people who were systematically persecuted and murdered, Nesterval weaves fiction and reality into a moving narrative.
A production by Nesterval in co-production with Sophiensæle. Based on the co-production with brut Wien. Funded by Kulturstiftung des Bundes, the Federal Government Commissioner for Culture and the Media, the Federal Ministry for Housing, Arts, Culture, Media and Sport (BMWKMS), and the City of Vienna. Also supported by the Dr. Horst Rusch Foundation and the Between Bridges Foundation. Media partners: Missy Magazine, Siegessäule, taz, Yorck Kinogruppe.
