Archive of Things going Extinct
‘You are cordially invited to take a look around. I call it the Archive of Things going Extinct,’ said Soledad, leading us up to her attic. In the interactive theatre installation Intercambios, the audience is guided through the recreated archive and the imaginative world of German-Peruvian Soledad Bauer, who describes herself as a collector of things that are going extinct. A journey through various microcosms in which insects write manifestos and plants call on their viewers to take action.
The interactive theatre installation invites the audience to discover things for themselves, make decisions and become part of the action. What do we miss when it’s gone?
In cooperation with: Teatro Yuyachkani, elgalpon.espacio Lima, Goethe-Institut Peru and Informationsstelle Peru e. V.

Dance theatre
Thirteen performers take to a long catwalk, where bodies, voices and beats collide. Music – from hip hop and funk to soul and rock – sets the rhythm for the evening, while spoken word, rap and dance tell stories of struggle, joy and survival.
Burning City is a concert, a living manifesto. Sometimes delicate and vulnerable, then again overwhelming with the urgency of activism. Created by Junior Mthombeni and the SOCHA collective, the piece confronts systems of exclusion and transforms the stage into a space of protest, celebration and community.
Burning City turns the pressing questions of who belongs, who owns the space, and whose voices are heard and whose are not, into a multidisciplinary experience. The confrontation turns into a feeling of empowerment that lingers long after leaving the room.
Sensory impressions such as bright light, loud noises or sudden events can be overstimulating or overwhelming for some people. That’s why you’ll find a list of sensory stimuli here. They may be good to be aware of for you or someone who is attending the performance with you.

Adepte de mon être is a Deaf ensemble dance piece from Burkina Faso. Energetic, strong dancing, music and sign language tells their story of pain, uncertainty, marginalization and exclusion. But through dance, shared rhythm, breath and heartbeats, we can be called to create a space of belonging and inclusion.
This piece will amaze with it’s athletic contemporary dance, African percussion and integration of sign to ask us all how we could create more inclusive communities for everyone that celebrates and welcomes our differences and similarities.

Mit energiegeladenem, kraftvollem Tanz, Musik und Gebärdensprache erzählen sie ihre Geschichte von Schmerz, Unsicherheit, Marginalisierung und Ausgrenzung.

Junges Staatstheater Karlsruhe
Drama [in German spoken language]
Saskia, a snail without a shell, takes her job very seriously: she is a guard and is responsible for ensuring that no one enters the large, empty room — Because the room belongs to the owner, and the owner gets to decide. Eddie the elephant and Georg, the tallest man in the world live next door, in the small room. They would both love to have more space. But the boundary between the two spaces seems immovable. And Saskia has her own worries…
We finally want to know: why do some have more than others – even though they don’t need it? Who is allowed to do what – and why? Which rules should apply? And which boundaries should be moved? It’s not that simple. And it’s incredibly funny. An interactive play about justice and the difficulty of playing basketball in a confined space.

Yasmine Yahiatène (BE / DZA)
Documentary narrative theatre [in French with German and English surtitles]
Yasmine Yahiatene’s La Fracture is a quiet solo piece that tells the story of her father, Ahmed and their relationship: both with each others’ and their background and culture, linking „father-daughter“ to „father-country“, and personal story to collective history. La Fracture uses football, historical film footage and personal and family archives to tell the story through spoken word, video projection and map drawing. It creates a quietly inviting environment.
La Fracture is personal and elegantly speaks to our questions of belonging – how we belong to our families, our nations and our journeys. Belonging is not simple and can provoke all our feelings of nostalgia, happiness, grief and loss.

Theater im Marienbad
Drama [in german spoken language with sign supported speech]
One day, out of nowhere, it appears: a tired and dusty creature. Pushing a suitcase in front of it, it encounters Rabbit, Bird and Fox, who just happen to be nearby. Suspicious and curious at the same time, they observe the strange creature. Where does it come from? What does it want? But their greatest interest is in the suitcase. What could be inside? A cup, a table, a chair and a small kitchenette, the creature replies before falling asleep from sheer exhaustion. ‘Impossible!’ the three agree and in no time at all they set about the suitcase.
Antonia Brix’s production follows the picture book by British author Chris Naylor-Ballesteros and, like the original, uses only a few sentences. Through powerful atmospheric images and poetically playful sounds, the four actors tell a story of being a stranger and arriving, of making mistakes and the power of forgiveness.

Junges Theater Heidelberg
Drama [in German spoken language]
This is mine – that’s yours. Sometimes it’s really easy to share. If there’s a raspberry bush full of raspberries, everyone can eat them. With some things, sharing is harder: how do you share a hat? Or a single cuddly toy rabbit? And how do you share the stage? Conflicts often arise when someone is dissatisfied with how things are shared. It can be nice to have something all to yourself, but it can also be frustrating or boring. Sharing can be annoying, but it can also be fun!
In this devised performance, we ask ourselves exciting questions about sharing. When do we want to have things all to ourselves? How does sharing work? And when does ownership not matter?

Puppet theatre
in spoken German and German sign language

Slightly hidden, yet right in the middle of the city, stands a small tent. At the agreed time, we are invited inside. Whispering quietly and equipped with mysterious messages, we enter a world full of puzzles and wonders. We meet Adja and her family, who are searching for a way to preserve and protect their world, and discover the story of AN-KI: a story about the origin and destiny of humanity and the memory of the Earth.
With AN-KI, the Catalan company ORTIGA has developed a unique immersive theatre experience for everyone aged 8 and above. Object theatre, music, scenography and lighting design intertwine inseparably to create a world that is both primal and futuristic, fairy-tale-like and frighteningly real. Oscillating between dystopia and utopia, we are reminded of our responsibility for the world we live in.

Danza Teatro Retazos & Memory Wax (CUB / SWE)
Dance theatre [without spoken language]
A plunger, a picture frame, a pillow… apparently ordinary objects. However, in the hands of this cast of (far from ordinary) dancers, we see objects and people transform in front of our eyes. The movements and manipulation of objects are so fluid and synchronized that it seems as if they can read each other’s minds. They reveal to us the grand scenarios, figures, and scenes that these objects hold inside themselves.
„Juegos“ shows us how serious, and perhaps sacred and performative, the act of playing is. The dance is performed by shifting the way we look to objects: through the eyes of a child, inviting us to witness the playfulness as performance, and the ordinary as extraordinary.

Teatro al Vacío (MEX)
Dance theatre [without spoken language]
Sometimes you know quite clearly who you are. But time and again, you discover something new about yourself. In YO SOY, two people meet on stage. One is this way, the other’s that way. Without spoken language, they question each other and their existence. They observe each other closely. They imitate each other and thus change what seems set in stone. With few resources and great precision, a dance theatre piece for everyone aged 3 and up emerges.
YO SOY examines the big question of ‘what makes me who I am’ with ease and humour. It is a piece about our identity and invents new possibilities of being. It is an attempt to make a small world visible in which acceptance is of fundamental importance for the formation of identity.

A crime play
PREMIERE: 28.03.2026
The door is shut, and all questions remain unanswered. An abandoned stage and many clues behind the door provide a space for wild speculation and hair-raising fantasies about what might have happened before or what could happen next, together with the question of whether whatever happens should be prevented. Puzzles upon puzzles arise for the four performers. This crime-like play is a plea for more mutual trust and playful freedom.Roads, kitchens, forests, playgrounds: dangers for children lurk everywhere, and the potential risk is enormous. Places where children can play unsupervised are becoming fewer and fewer, and children’s range of movement is getting smaller and smaller. With both of these factors combined, the opportunity to learn how to deal with dangers in a playful way and to experience self-efficacy is disappearing. But what do children actually do when they play freely and unsupervised? How dangerous is it really? Or: What do adults think children do when they play alone, and what dangers do they imagine?

Based on the novel by Kim de l’Horizon
PREMIERE: 23.05.2025
Kim de l’Horizon’s multi-award-winning debut novel is the starting point for this theatre piece. ‘Blutbuch’ is a collection of memories of things that seemed important to our ancestors, an honest struggle with a binary present and a tender dream of a place where everything could be different. This JES production invites you into a garden. The kind of garden we dream of: a place where we actually meet, where we can listen to each other honestly, argue relentlessly and rewrite stories.
The novel serves as a source of inspiration, a collection of texts and a centre for our own search about imprinting, anger, queerness and family.

‘A good murder, a real murder, a beautiful murder?’
Marie, Louise, Ophelia, Juliet, Desdemona: classical theatre literature is full of female murder victims. Their common cause of death: patriarchal violence. These texts, mostly written by men, centre perpetrators. Following an inner logic of social pressure and emotional despair, their deeds seem inevitable or even romantic. This is a pattern that is still reflected in reporting on gender-based violence today: Violent acts are labelled ‘family tragedies’, ‘jealousy dramas’ or ‘acts of desperation’ instead of calling them by their name: Femicides, murders of women* because of their gender or gender identity.
JES sets out to develop a theatrical counter-narrative. Director Pina Bergemann used to work in play clubs at JES, then made a career as an actress and was most recently seen at the Theaterhaus Jena in the multi-award-winning performance ‘Die Hundekot-Attacke’. After two solo evenings, which she also helped develop, she is now taking on the role of director.

Based on the novel by Fatma Aydemir
Stage adaption by Yeşim Nela Keim Schaub, Alina Tammaro und Ensemble
PREMIERE: 03.05.2025
‘Maybe djinns are this: Trruths that are always there, that are always in the room, whether you like it or not, but that you don’t put into words in the hope that they will leave you alone.’ Four siblings travel from Germany to Turkey for their father’s funeral. They do not travel together, but set out on their respective journeys alone. They have been fundamentally different in this family for a long time, perhaps they always have been. At the very least, they have all taken a different direction in their lives, with different attitudes, desires and fears. During the course of their journeys, their pasts, their childhood and youth emerge and the path to their identities becomes visible.
‘Djinns’ is about what it is like to lose one’s father and the connection to one’s origins. A group of young people from Stuttgart will take to the stage at JES and invite us into a space of remembrance, mourning and empowerment with ‘Djinns’. Their own post-migrant realities will become part of the production. For the second time, we are working together with Yeşim Nela Keim Schaub (director of ‘Warum das Kind in der Polenta kocht’).

by Kirsten Boie as a musical tale
adapted by Christian Schönfelder and Grete Pagan
Premiere: 09.11.2024
In the Happy Land, nothing is as it used to be: people are unhappy, they are sad, they are in a bad mood and only care about themselves. Is it because the bird of hope that gives everyone comfort and confidence with its song has disappeared? Jabu, the prince, sets off to find the bird despite his fears and doubts. Fortunately, he gets help from Alva, the lighthouse keeper’s daughter, who at least knows how to steer a ship. Together, the two set off on their adventure – accompanied by an invigorating melody.
Together with musicians Hêja Netirk and Carlos Rico, JES develops a light and sensual musical narrative about big questions: How do we want to live together? Do people lose their humanity when they no longer feel confident? Which melody gives you hope?

Play development by Milan Gather and ensemble
PREMIERE: 25.01.2025
Life is not fair. Some people are allowed to stay up late, others can already reach the shelf with the sweets. It’s usually the majority who decide which game to play. If just a few group members misbehave, is nobody allowed to have ice cream? And of course: Who is allowed to play with which toy?
The list could go on and on, as could the list of attempts to make everyone equal. How do you get someone to be fair and give up something when so many others give up nothing?
To develop the play, author and director Milan Gather and the JES ensemble first go on a research trip to schools and daycare centres to find out: When do we perceive something as unfair? How do we deal with unequal conditions? And how willing are we ourselves to compromise and show solidarity?

le barbarie & BRONKS (BE)
Drama (with little German spoken language)
Adults work. And children play. Or they go to kindergarten or school. Or they sleep. And while they sleep, adults, the “big people”, have to keep working. Tidying up in the kitchen. Or working on the broken washing machine. Or typing something up on the computer.
But what do adults really do all day while children are away? Do they put the world in order? Do they take an afternoon nap? Or do they mix everything up? Do adults really have everything under control?
Grote Mensen is an absurdly tragic horror comedy about the lives of adults. Four performers enthusiastically fail to plug a dripping hole in the ceiling. With little language and fantastic slapstick, the seemingly controlled world of adults falls apart before the eyes of the children in the audience. And the question remains: who actually cleans up whose mess in the end?
Sensory impressions such as bright light, loud noises or sudden events can be exciting or overwhelming for some people. That’s why you’ll find a list of sensory stimuli in “Grote Mensen” here.
They may be helpful for you or someone who is attending the performance with you to be aware of.
If you have any concerns or questions, please contact us at ticket@jes-stuttgart.de.
We will be happy to advise you and work out together how we can help.

The climate catastrophe is here. So what now? While some are still making climate change a matter of faith and hoping that everything will remain more or less as it was, others are facing the facts and asking themselves the question: what do we do next? Does the pressure to act on politics, business and society possibly offer the chance of a better, fairer, more sustainable future? And if not, what options do we have?
Theatre maker Arne Vogelgesang and actors from JUNGES STAATSTHEATER KARLSRUHE ensemble have created a theatre play in which you – the audience – determine the path: The starting point is our present. Visions of the future compete against each other in three rounds. Via applause you decide what the end of the play and thus our future could look like. Will we end up in high-tech ultra-capitalism in 2070? In solar-punk communism? In the eco-social market economy? Play along and find out!

Schauspiel & Tanz (in dt. Lautsprache)
The five of us. Together. Through the night, onto the city ring road, through the chaos, the party and the silence: “The five of us” are Pavlov, Maja, Suse, Tolga and Bo. They have belonged together for years. But on this night after their graduation party, everything is put to the test. On this night, which they declare to be the last night of their youth, they come face to face with their own personal monsters: “Tonight we must die” is the incantatory formula that no one can escape. We must die in order to be reborn.
From now on, nothing is certain. The connection between the five protagonists becomes shaky. Their bodies shake not only to the beat of the party, but increasingly follow the rhythm of uncertainty of whether their friendship will be shattered by the revelation of the next secret.
Choreographer Lin Verleger and director Monika Kosik find their own body language that combines with intoxicating words. Author Sarah Jäger composes a captivatingly pure and humorous language in her novel for young people. The result is a multi-perspective tale of friendships, rifts and encounters between party ecstasy and existential questions.

Erzähltheater-Performance (in dt. Lautsprache)
Growing up. Becoming a man? Becoming a woman? Becoming me? Our body grows and we catch up to it. Or we don’t. “What do you think about when it comes to the body?” is one of many questions from the initial research for WHAT THE BODY? !
The production team led by actress Lisa Bräuniger and director Anne Wittmiß went into school classes and conducted interviews with a wide variety of body owners, weaving them into a fast-paced body rollercoaster. We look through the burning glass of ideals. Keeping nothing secret. Discuss the body loudly. Ask questions. Allow doubts. Change shapes. This fast-paced and humorous production directly addresses the lives of young people and examines the process of growing up in a normative world.
In order to not only talk about bodies, but also feel them, WHAT THE BODY?! has gotten rid of seats and invites you to stand, run and dance.

Theater Tempus Fugit
Interactive theatre performance (in German spoken language & audio description)
From level to level. Forks in the road. Crossroads. Obstacles. How do we decide? Which way should we take? Right or left? Two performers enter the game against tyranny. But what does tyranny mean? What does resistance mean? And how can resistance be organised?
“20 Lessons for Resistance” by Timothy Snyder serves as the basis for the artists. The spectators are directly involved. They guide, support and decide. In the end, the question remains: How do we want to look back on our society in the future?
The theatre piece starts in the middle of young people’s reality. Two Instagram accounts with stories, reels, hashtags and likes are visible. The audience is mesmerised until the situation changes and they are allowed to decide how they would act. Digital voting tools give them the chance to actively influence events. Where does the story lead? Music and projection blur, resound in and fill the space. The interactive theatre performance takes a critical look at current tyrannical structures and conflicts.

Junges Nationaltheater Mannheim
Materialtheater (in dt. Lautsprache)
It’s not solid and not liquid. Sometimes it’s very light and airy, sometimes solid, almost like stone: foam. Foam is practically everywhere! In the bath, in the sink, in the walls, on waves, on skin before shaving, in egg whites when whipped, in cola, well shaken, anyway: effervescent powder. Construction foam. Foam soup. Foaming with rage. . And if you put washing soap in the dishwasher, you get an infinite amount of foam. You can also make foam with spit. And foam makes noises. When you blow onto it, when small and large bubbles burst, when you tap it or sing into it. Foam parties exist for a reason, after all.
In this new production for the very youngest audiences, the Young National Theatre, directed by Lara Kaiser, continues its material research for the 2+ age group. After balls, mud and colours, the artistic team now turns its attention to the everyday phenomenon of foam and asks itself how it can be viewed, made to sound, dance and disappear in the theatre space.

Ebeneser’s world is shrinking: since his parents no longer have a job, everything is getting smaller and smaller – the opportunities, the flat and, ultimately, his father and mother themselves. Sammy is already familiar the experience and Ebeneser can share his “because we can’t afford it” experiences with her, as well as Tic Tacs, stories and fantasies, anger and courage. And when the “because we can’t afford it” costs them the school trip they have been looking forward to, the two of them decide not to let it get them down, but to remain loud in their silence.
This multi-award-winning children’s play uses subtle humour and strong images of a great friendship to (quietly) protest against disappearance and concealment.

Nastaran Razawi Khorasani (NL)
Documentary storytelling (in Farsi with german & english surtitles)
What does it mean to live in a dictatorship? What thoughts and hopes keep the young generation in Iran on their feet? The performer Nastaran Razawi Khorasani spent several months talking on the phone to two children growing up in Iran. The soundtrack of the conversations forms the basis of this theatre evening. In Farsi, the two talk about computer games, New Year’s Eve plans, everyday situations and special encounters In the process, they repeatedly and incidentally touch on big themes such as courage and freedom, censorship, self-censorship and life dreams. Their thoughts are projected onto the stage set in German and English.
The sound space is complemented by rousing pop songs that Nastaran and the musician Jimi Zoet wrote together with the two children, who remain anonymous throughout the play.
Nastaran accompanies the soundtrack performatively. She supports and complements the young people’s stories with unconditional devotion and unprecedented restraint. She gives her body and her resources as an artist in Europe over to the question of how she can share the stage with people who have no access to it.

“The Enlightened” spins a web of post-colonial secrets about a young white man who went to India in search of enlightenment and disappeared without a trace. As friends, family and internet detectives focus on a digital trail of tiny breadcrumbs, uncomfortable truths come to light, dangerous lies are uncovered and everyone is forced to ask the question: How important is the truth ultimately?
“The Enlightened” is a true crime thriller that delves into the infinite depths of the internet. It tells a fictional story inspired by true events. The audience is invited to participate in a collective meditation session that takes place between physical, digital and spiritual worlds, exploring human connection and the need to make sense of chaos.
At the same time, performers tell this ‘true’ crime story on the JES stage and in their private homes in India. “The Enlightened” can be viewed by the audience at JES and streamed live on the internet at the same time. Moreover, all viewers have the opportunity to participate in a WhatsApp group chat during the play. The show combines elements of crime history, theatre, film and digitality to create a unique and immersive experience without losing its contemporary and political relevance.

KmZ Kollektiv & LaiaRiCa (DE/SLV/CUB/MEX/ESP)
Documentary-theatre (in German & Spanish spoken language)
The two materials coffee and sugar dominate the stage in their different aggregate states. Using coffee and sugar as starting points, German immigration history in Central America and its colonial structures, which live on to this day, are negotiated. The performer Laia RiCa and the live musician Yahima Piedra Córdova share their expertise in being in-between: The struggle with two worlds, the constant suspicion of one’s betrayal of “roots”, the questioning of feelings of inferiority and superiority and the open question of what to do with the knowledge of global injustice.
Coffee and sugar are simultaneously the starting point for this research-based material performance, the basis for the documentary lecture performance about post-colonial continuities, consumption and globalisation, as well as a metaphor for biographically supported narratives of identity politics, family history and everyday racism.
The complexity of the content interweaves with the complexity of its methods (documentary film and video art, object theatre and live music, narrative and movement theatre) to create a visually powerful and sensual theatre lesson.

Theater/Performance (in dt. Lautsprache)
Ira has built something after her grandfather’s death: a place for feelings, a memory playground. She invites the audience into her “cave” and encourages them to let their thoughts wander and allow their feelings to be heard.
What is it like to lose a loved one? How can a relationship continue after death and what comforts us? Ira talks about shared experiences with her grandfather Mate, his death and the time afterwards. With the help of the audience, she talks about memories, rituals and wishes.
“Unter Drachen” is both narrative theatre and an immersive experience. This solo impresses with its acting precision, interwoven with everything theatre has to offer: (stage) space, light, sound and video. The delicate moments of interaction are carefully guided and create a feeling of togetherness between audience and performer. “Unter Drachen” is an encouraging piece of theatre that shines a bright light onto the taboo subject of “death” and – without trivialising it in any way – takes away some of its horror by simply allowing feelings to be present.

Tabea Martin (CH)
Tanztheater (in dt. Lautsprache)
What if we lived forever? How do you imagine your own death? Who can die the most dramatically on stage?
With the help of interviews, games and workshops, children aged 8 to 12 developed very personal answers and fantasies to these questions. The resulting material forms the basis of this dance performance by choreographer Tabea Martin.
Together with five professional dancers, Martins FOREVER creates a world of immortality where the children’s fantasies bring ancient gods and creatures back to life.
With many litres of fake blood, buckets of tears and a washable stage surface, this contemporary dance performance is a visual, sensual, sensitive and humorous journey through the visual language of children.
FOREVER asks: How do children think about life and death, about dying and immortality? What fantasies do they have about life after death? And to what extent can and should we confront children with this topic in theatre contexts?

Schauspiel (in dt. Lautsprache & dt. Gebärdensprache)
It stinks… The stench is extraordinary, even. What is that? A fart? Mould in the corner? Parents arguing?
Whatever you think of the Grrr family, it’s not like that. The parents’ quarrel is getting bigger and more absurd, outgrowing everyone and everything. Who is listening to whom? Is anyone listening to anyone else at all?
“Familie Grrr” is a turbulent production about the unrest and upheavals that occur when arguments between parents boil over, shaking and shattering supposedly solid family structures. Together with De Nwe Tijd / Suzanne Grotenhuis and Suze Milius, the Belgian company hetpaleis has created a theatre piece that addresses the topic of divorce in families in a humorous and experimental manner.
The performances will be followed by a discussion with the artists.

Three bodies meet in public space. They hold each other and support each other. What is it like to be carried by another person? What if one person carries two others? What if a person doesn’t want to be carried? And what if we all hold one another, uplifting, enduring, holding on to one another tightly?
The images that the three performers create in “Lifted” tell stories of falling and being caught, of belonging and being marginalised, of trust and courage.
The London-based company Mimbre combines acrobatics, theatre and dance. In their work, they challenge gender stereotypes in art and society and shape a positive and diverse image of cis and trans women and non-binary people.
“Lifted” was created in collaboration with the three guest choreographers Yi-Chun Liu, HURyCAN and Gary Clarke.

Multigenerational Dance Theatre
The dancers on stage range from young to old, with and without disabilities. Some of them are on stage for the first time. They open the luggage of their pasts. There are vastly different parcels: heavy, light, barely manageable, comfortable to carry, stuffed, new, previously unpacked. Their hands and bodies become surfaces that pick up the weight of these found objects, pass them on, put them down and whirl them around. They carry and are carried, they fall and they catch. This blurs the boundaries of their pasts and the individual’s parcels become the parcels of others.
A play about wanting to run away and returning. About paying attention, even if someone keeps their door closed. About hope and hands that form a net to carry someone.
The dance theatre production takes place in collaboration with FUNDUS Theater, Hamburg and is a co-production with höhne/hoffmann.
Supported by the Hamburg Ministry of Culture and Media and by the Fonds Darstellende Künste in the Production Support Programme (Programm Produktionsförderung) with funds from the Federal Government Commissioner for Culture and Media.

– There are vocals and loud music that one of the musicians plays live on stage. The musician uses a microphone and a loop station. This means that sounds and noises are played repeatedly. There are high-pitched sounds and noises such as rustling, humming and hissing.
– A few minutes into the piece, the musician suddenly loudly claps a rhythm into a microphone. Several people then emerge from behind a wall.
– There are rapid changes between light, dim light and darkness. There is a scene in which colourful points of light circle across the stage.
– There are various boxes on the stage. The boxes are moved, thrown, carried and stacked into high towers.
– There are brightly coloured LED boxes. Sometimes it is dark on stage and only these boxes light up.

Play by Lutz Hübner
Jojo has been sentenced by juvenile court. The punishment: painting walls in an old age home. Jojo ends up in Leo’s room in a bad mood, who doesn’t utter a word – until it turns out that Jojo isn’t actually guilty. Leo begins to talk about himself and admits that he is only keeping quiet so that the nurses will leave him alone. And it turns out: he used to be a boxing legend! Jojo tells Leo about friends who are not really friends at all and about the major insecurities regarding his future. Expectations begin to crumble on both sides and conversations about being excluded, about trust and the courage to take responsibility for one another develop. A friendship develops that challenges Leo and Jojo to jump over their shadows.

Based on the picture book by Jon Klassen
Translated from English by Thomas Bodmer.
I like standing here, this is my favourite place, the turtle thinks to itself and sniffs at a flower. But what happens when a new friend shows up, but has a bad feeling about the place and would rather stand somewhere else? Do you then leave the place you have come to love? Do you insist that the other person come to me, no matter the cost? Or do we meet in the middle, unfamiliar to both of us?
With just a few words, the Canadian-American animator, illustrator and writer Jon Klassen has created a whole little universe of feelings around friendship in his new picture book “Out of the Blue” / “The Rock from the Sky”, full of fears and reservations, suspicions and wishes.
His picture book “The Rock from the Sky” is about searching for the right place, also in life, about friendship and destiny: No sooner has the armadillo lured the tortoise away from its favourite spot than a rock falls from the sky right where it was standing. There is not much talk about it, just as there is little dialogue at all, not even with the snake that joins them. But there are plenty of stories between the lines, full of longing, uncertainty and hope.
Patricija Katica Bronić has developed a playful realisation of the picture book for the stage as her first directorial work at JES.
Sensory impressions such as bright light, loud noises or sudden events can be overstimulating or overwhelming for some people. That’s why you’ll find a list of sensory stimuli in “Aus heiterem Himmel” here. They may be good to be aware of for you or someone who is attending the performance with you.
– The audience sits around the performance area. The main performance area is a long wooden footbridge that runs diagonally across the room. There are seat cushions, seating pads and a few wooden benches to sit on. You can choose where you want to sit.
– The audience can see and observe each other.
– The actors sit in the audience multiple times. They make eye contact with the audience. Sometimes they act behind the audience, using the entire room.
– In one scene, a single wooden flower suddenly appears from the bridge. In a later scene, more wooden flowers and plants are unfolded from the bridge.
– There are sound and music recordings, sometimes with a deep, loud bass. In one scene, an actress sings softly. Sometimes nature and animal sounds, such as wind and birdsong, can be heard.
– There are rapid changes of light, flickering and pulsating light as well as coloured light. A disco ball hangs from the ceiling, sometimes creating small spotlights in the room.
– At the end of the piece, it suddenly goes completely dark for a brief moment. This is how the play ends. The light goes back on and the audience is allowed to clap. The actors take a bow.
The following moments in the play can be frightening . These moments can be a little scary:
1) At one end of the bridge, a large, round stage piece hangs from the stage ceiling. It falls down unexpectedly in the first third of the play. The fall is accompanied by a change of light and sound. A loud, crashing noise is played. The actors are startled.
2) A programmed spotlight slowly descends from the ceiling, the light moves through the room and changes colour. The audience can be briefly dazzled. Tense music is played. An actress reacts with fear, screams and hides in the audience.
3) Two actors jump from the bridge into the audience at the same time. Whoever is sitting in that exact spot could be frightened. The action is signalled in advance by the actors’ gestures. Speak to our evening staff if you do not want to sit in this spot.
4) At the end of the play, the programmed spotlight appears a second time. It is suddenly and unexpectedly covered by a green cloth that falls from the ceiling.

A fantasy play
Based on a story of Laurence Cook and Josie Dale-Jones
Hero has been waiting for a long time. A really long time. For an adventure, for an exciting journey full of challenges, dangers and dragons! Then he finally gets a call that changes everything. Hero is suddenly in a land that has fallen out of balance: Exclamation Face has stolen Questionhead’s hat. Since then, no one has been able to ask questions anymore and everything is in chaos. Together with Sidekick, Hero sets out to find the hat – but not everything works out the way Hero had always imagined an adventure would…
With “Land behind the Curtain”, JES invites you to immerse yourself: Into an imaginative world full of surprises and funny twists, but also full of dangers and doubts that have to be overcome. We ask ourselves the big questions of all fantasy tales:
What is worth fighting for? Does it even make sense to fight? Is there no other way? And does one person always have to save the world alone, or does it not take at least two, or even many more?
Sensory impressions such as bright light, loud noises or sudden events can be overstimulating or overwhelming for some people.

Science has worked wonders: genetic research, early diagnosis and strict hygiene laws prevent the outbreak of any disease. In the wake of medical progress, common sense has led to a political system that protects its citizens from physical suffering. The price for safety: control and complete surveillance.
Until recently, the young biologist Mia Holl was an unquestioning part of the system and defended it against her rebellious brother Moritz. But then he was convicted of murdering a woman after a DNA test and killed himself in prison. Mia is thrown off track, doubts her brother’s guilt, blames herself, neglects sports and nutritional reports and is targeted by the judicial system. A smoked cigarette is judged as abuse of toxic substances and is seen as endangerment of general welfare. The discussions in court and in the media escalate and Mia becomes the figurehead for the resistance.
