A relaxed series of events on intense topics
Rhythm travels, Rhythm migrates, Rhythm adapts, Rhythm resists. Rhythm is a vibration that synchronizes your heartbeat to the heartbeat of another. In this performance, Rhythm is the character of Jewish diaspora, reaching back in time to shared Jewish-Muslim worlds: worlds that were not defined by borders, nationalisms, or divisions that emerged with the advent of colonialism.

KEY VISUAL Mit Wirkung
Artist Anna Lublina and musician hoyah work with tap dance, extended vocal techniques, and live mixing to ask what the political and cultural history of diasporic Jewish rhythm (and its embodiment) can teach us in a time marked by polarization and violence.
Anna Lublina and hoyah are both artists and Jews trying to flee the confines of nationalism in the spirit of Doykeit.
The performance will be followed by an audience talk.
The performance is part of »Mit Wirkung. Eine Relaxed Veranstaltungsreihe über intensive Themen«.
On Apr 26+27 there will be further performances in the regular program.
