Warum der Hund das Fleisch durch den Fluss trägt
A conciliation course for everyone from 10 years of age by Sebastian Mauksch & Team
Warum der Hund das Fleisch durch den Fluss trägt
© Promo
The military dog Clausewitz wants to learn peace. In the depths of the forest, he encounters the mythical beasts. The animals are at loggerheads, as always. No two are ever of the same opinion. Too bad, Clausewitz thinks, you probably can’t teach me peace. – Oh Clausi! Don’t you know the rules of peace? Arguing, yes, we like that! But showing teeth, claws or spikes? It’s not the arguing that’s the problem, it’s how we deal with it! Over hill and dale into the undergrowth.
Together with the dog, the audience roams through the mythical forest. In the process, they get into tricky situations. Mouse courage, squirrel humour and peace techniques are required. Between intersecting interests, needs and values, the spectators try out the toolbox of conflict resolution with the animals. By engaging with the spoken word, with sound and song, with choreography and body language, with video clips and images, with camouflage and transformation, they sharpen their perception and gather their own experiences.
Sebastian Mauksch develops theatre productions, primarily for children and young people, as a shared space for experience and discovery. The productions are created in a collective departmental working method with various artists, who this time also perform themselves.
In addition to »Warum der Hund das Fleisch durch den Fluss trägt« (2023, HKF funding, longlist Augenblick mal! 2025) realized Sebastian Mauksch &Team in cooperation with Ballhaus Ost, »Normans Norm« (2024, Senate funding), »Junge Leute« (2022, HKF funding, longlist Wildwechsel 2023), »Fennymore oder wie man Dackel im Salzmantel macht« (2019, HKF funding, invitations to the festivals Augenblick mal! and Wildwechsel 2021), »Karl & Knäcke lernen Räubern« (2020, Senate funding). The focus of his artistic research is »The Art of Adolescence« and its principles of self-empowering theater work. He is a juror at the »Theatertreffen der Jugend« and develops various artistic projects at Berlin schools.
The performance on 30 January will be followed by a workshop at 10:30.
