Try Out Spaces & Places | © Applied Theatre
A seminar on the theatricality and performativity of places and spaces in WS22/23 at the Thomas Bernhard Institute dealt with the relevant theories and the history(s) of urban and rural living space development. A parcours led through eight temporary individual works on the topic.
Approaches to activating urban development were discussed and in-depth knowledge of artistic work with communities on site (Salzburg and the Alpine region) was acquired. This includes performative and installative urban projects that develop strategies of intervention, participation and co-determination and directly intervene in the perception of places, spaces and squares.

The students developed temporary individual works that visitors could walk through individually or in small groups. The project was part of the International Days .

    Vincenzo Bellini: I Capuleti e i Montecchi 

    The performance of Vincenzo Bellini's opera I Capuleti e i Montecchi delivered a powerful reinterpretation of the masterpiece. Directed by Alexander von Pfeil, the production centred on the relentless feud between two rival clans and the profound despair of its victims. This staging transcended specific eras, placing the story in a universal, timeless setting that brought Bellini's dark vision of love and war to the stage with harrowing clarity.

    Trageübung 

    You choose the material on the test field. And then the playing begins. How does your new body feel? What does it tempt you to do? You are not alone on this exploration, the others must also find themselves in their foreign bodies. A series of recordings accompany you on this journey in an attempt to create an environment that enables collective thinking and relationships, to rethink how we are together and what we learn from each other.
