 WALL 2 WALL

A THEATRE TRIP THROUGH THE CITY TO A SECRET PLACE - AND WITNESS A WORLD BEGIN

 

a blindfolded journey 
The pick-up point is Vor Frue Plads, where you will be registered and put on a bus taking you to a secret place. You receive a precious bottle of water and a pass to enter this place of dreamers...

 

The place with no name

On the secret destination a group of busy hosts are creating 5 new homes for you to visit. homes made up of longings and desires for a different world. A world of dreams. These fragile and wonderful things are turned into music, play and performance in Wall 2 Wall. We ask you to help us name these dreams for us and witness a new world begin.. 

 

Each night is a new experience!

History: Wall 2 Wall was devloped under the Metropolis Laboratory 2007 & 08, and under a residency at Sophiensaele, Berlin

 

In the summer of 2007 the Copenhagen based theatre company TeaterKUNST decided to research the meaning of walls today – in a personal, political and commercial sense.

TeaterKUNST became Artists in Residence at Sophiensaele in Berlin – the former city of the wall. Here they sold off the walls of this prestigious but decaying theatre at an auction in order to save its history. Later that year the company made a poetic and passionate comment on the exclusion of artists from the beautiful inner city area of Copenhagen. 

 

The residency was part of the Berlinaut project and supported by The Danish Arts Agency and The Danish Embassy, Berlin.


WALL 2 WALL is supported by Copenhagen International Theatre (KIT), The Danish Arts Agency and Sophiensaele.
