Playground for Tomorrow
Installative, performative and interactive work at various locations in Salzburg, as part of the Salzburg Summer Scene: If the practices of today are the basis for the life of tomorrow, we should definitely scrutinise our everyday actions. To do this, we should create room for manoeuvre where we live - in Salzburg. We are a group of five individuals who come from different places, with different ages, experiences and languages.

Franz-Josef-Straße 2 & Stadtraum Salzburg
As such, we invite you to transform Salzburg into a field of research and practice, a playground where we can try out actions for the life of tomorrow: Body politics, eye contact, small and big talks, poetic and pragmatic gestures for times to come - both good and bad.
Because: more than anything else, practising the future is a practice! "Playground for tomorrow" is an installative work, but also a visible and interactive way of being there for each other. The work is the second collaboration between Sommerszene and the Master's programme in Applied Theatre - Artistic Theatre Practice & Society at the Thomas Bernhard Institute at the Mozarteum University.
Inspired by Über Tyrannei: Zwanzig Lektionen für den Widerstand/On Tyranny: Twenty Lessons from the Twentieth Century by Timothy Snyder and Nora Krug, the space is both an archive and a laboratory for the future.
