BE LOUD

Performance on the GDR opposition group "Women for Peace"

Seid doch laut is a site-specific performance in the former Stasi headquarters in Berlin-Lichtenberg - today's Campus for Democracy - about the "Women for Peace" in East Berlin in the 1980s. The ideas, thoughts and concepts that moved the women back then are still relevant today: peace and democracy, nuclear armament, environmental destruction, civil courage, solidarity and justice.

The Stasi headquarters is an emblematic place for Berlin and the entire history of the GDR. In dealing with this place as an instrument of repression, the performance transforms it into a space for democratic exchange.

Five performers, all socialized in the GDR, rework elements of the memoirs of these peace women and weave them into an associative, emotional performance that explores the boundaries between personal and historical reality, individual and social responsibility.

By making the "Women for Peace" visible, we are countering the distorted historical record and state security with a different perspective, showing how women mobilized, dared and did things and thus reflecting the current uprisings determined by women worldwide.

Funding: The performances are realized by Drei Schwestern Produktion UG and supported by the Berlin Commissioner for the Reappraisal of the SED Dictatorship and the TuWas Foundation for Public Spirit and financed by crowdfunding.

In cooperation with the Federal Archive - Stasi Records Archive, the Robert Havemann Society e.V. and Aufbau Publishers.
