I never knew a thing could do so much. I never thought it was possible, but now I’m getting in touch? What can I do and can the sponge do it too? There are so many things that make me feel yellow and blue.
 

What things surround us? What can you do with things? And more importantly: what can things do with us? Can things actually think? Do thoughts have a thing? Do they thing?

 

With THINGS THING, Julia Keren Turbahn and Jan Rozman invite you into an overflowing world of things. Into a world of possibilities, in which they encounter things and things encounter them in different ways. Is that your thing? Then be part of it: in a playful performance, Julia and Jan leave room for interpretation, discovery and encounter, and invite everyone from the age of six to thing together.

 

The work is produced by EMANAT Institute from Slovenia in partnership with the Ljubljana Puppet Theatre and in cooperation with FELD Theater für junges Publikum in Berlin. Performance is suitable for children of age 6+

 

Supported by: Fonds Darstellende Künste with funds from the Federal Government Commissioner for Culture and the Media, Ministry of Culture RS, City Municipality of Ljubljana 

 

THINGS THING  is made possible by the residency at the FELD Theatre within the framework of the pilot project Residency Funding for Dance 2020/2021 of the Berlin Senate Department for Culture and Europe
