Porzellan

Object Theater
Antje Töpfer, Stuttgart
Porcelain - the white gold - has been through fire. It is both extremely strong and extremely fragile. Its existence stands for us - our identity, our relationships, our bodies and not least for our environment, the world in which we live. On stage: fragments of animals, plants, objects, body parts - a wondrous world of porcelain. Not only because it is fragile, but also because of its beauty, preciousness and sound. Do shards bring good luck? What does it mean to stand on the broken edge? Microphones and sensors accompany us as we immerse ourselves in a white, highly sensitive puzzle. We read the stories from the fragments, follow the threads of sound that connect everything and organize a poetic bachelor party for a fragile personality.
