I need a genius no. 23 - pop culture and feminism

The audience can expect a mixture of music and readings at this event, performed by female* only artists.

Sounds are aerial creatures, yes! In our summer edition of "I need a genie" with the motto "Building castles in the air", the most exciting female* dreamer acts of the moment take flight! Bernadette La Hengst, Sofia Portanet and The Doctorella build castles in the air with their sarcastic songs: on the one hand, because they can play with and entertain their inner child again and again and then let go.

As Sofia Portanet sings in "Balloon": "Always wanted to go where the lights are, become like a butterfly, what I am, ooh ohh." And then, like a balloon, fly high and move on. On the other hand, because they are all three chasing dreams, which are also political dreams, with songs about climate, mental health, identity, patriarchy, you know, the topics that are in the air right now; but presented three times in completely different dreamy splendor, er music. For example, when Bernadette La Hengst sings an auspicious piano ballad: "And she is like a utopia (like a queen) that doesn't even exist yet (only without a kingdom), she can negate herself and everyone becomes equal... The solidarity of all genders is tenderness."

So let's go, in the most beautiful air castle month of the year, when all hopes are still fresh, to the Berghain Kantine, when it says for the 23rd time: "I need a genius."
