In English
Vier Muren (Four Walls) is an immersive, boundary-pushing musical performance in which the audience becomes part of an intense hip-hop ritual. In a world turned upside down by change and conflict, we mourn what is lost, celebrate what is new, and search for a deeper connection between past and future.
With a unique and immersive musical mix - from slam choirs and mantra singing to konakkol (Indian drum language) and instruments such as the darbuka, didgeridoo and bouzouki - an experience is created that brings together music, words and movement in a way you won't find anywhere else. From Rage Against the Machine-like energy to subdued moments of reflection,
Vier Muren takes you on a journey of emotions. This performance calls for reflection and invites the audience to action: how can we honour the past while embracing the future? What do we want to preserve for generations to come? And how do we break free from the walls - literally and figuratively - that imprison us, or that we have built ourselves?
Vier Muren is more than a performance; it is a ritual in which we come together to mourn, celebrate, and dream. A call for empathy, collaboration and hope. A place where the audience is not just a spectator, but plays a crucial role in the story. Connect, be touched and experience a unique encounter between generations, traditions and future. Together, we form a circle, a space where past and future meet.
Vier Muren shows that change is not only about letting go, but also about cherishing what is important.
