ON THE FIRST NIGHT WE LOOKED AT MAPS

by Vöcks de Schwindt

ON THE FIRST NIGHT WE LOOKED AT MAPS
© Jana Kiesser

In about three years, in the middle of the 18th century, more than 30.000 people from the German territories made the flight to the shores of the Volga. They were escaping war, hunger and persecution. But the promised land was not what they had hoped for.

We sit at the table with the queer Argentinian-German artist couple Vöcks de Schwindt. We lean over maps, photos, documents and a songbook. Mate tea is served. Together we travel across borders and continents along the migration history of their families. We follow the trail of the Volga Germans, who left the German region of Hesse in the 18th century to emigrate to Russia and continued their path to South America 100 years later.

In a continuously shifting narrative, the couple deconstructs nationalist myths and contradictions in family identity, searches for a queer heritage and encounters ancestors who can only be who they want to be when they are not in the place where they believe they belong.

The production returns for another four performances to TD Berlin after more than 50 presentations at venues and festivals such as the WUK Theater Quartier in Halle/Saale, the LICHTHOF Theater in Hamburg, the El Galpón de Guevara in Buenos Aires (Argentina) as well as at the Furore Festival in Ludwigsburg, the Festival Verso Sud in Corato (Italy) and the Altofest in Naples (Italy) and Valletta (Malta).
