Der Erfahrungsbericht zur Inszenierung Before the Sky Falls von Christiane Jatahy kommt von Davi Kopenawa und seinem Sohn Dário von den Yanomami, einer indigenen Gemeinschaft aus dem Norden Brasiliens. Im Oktober waren Davi und Dário Kopenawa für ihre politische Kampagnenarbeit in der Schweiz und, für ein Gespräch mit Christiane Jatahy, auch zu Gast im Schauspielhaus. Wir stellen die Videoaufnahme dieses Gesprächs hier in Gänze zur Verfügung und präsentieren ausserdem die Ausführungen der beiden als kondensierten Erfahrungsbericht des Premierenabends.

In a time of social distance, characterized by fear of touch and longing for closeness, it becomes clear that the theater is not only a place of hearing and seeing, but also one of manifold touches. In interviews, essays, and conversations, the Haptic Entanglements series asks about the role of touch in the performative arts. About haptic gazes, haptic sounds, and digital intimacy. In texts, questions and exercises, artist Joy Mariama Smith invites us to approach an embodied practice of constent that takes sensing together as its starting point and understands consent less as a contract than as a complex field of relations.

In einer Zeit sozialer Distanz, die von Angst vor Berührung und Sehnsucht nach Nähe geprägt ist, wird deutlich, dass das Theater nicht nur ein Ort der Rührung, des Hörens und Sehens ist, sondern auch einer der vielfältigen Berührungen. Die Reihe Haptic Entanglements (etwa: haptische Verstrickungen) fragt in Interviews, Essays und Gesprächen nach der Rolle von Berührung in den performativen Künsten, nach tastenden Blicken, haptischen Klängen und digitaler Intimität. Der Auftakt von Rahel Spöhrer und Joshua Wicke geht der Geschichte der Berührung in den performativen Künsten bis in die Gegenwart nach und stellt schliesslich die einzelnen Positionen der Reihe vor.
