Few genres of performing arts have so consistently conquered new aesthetic fields in recent decades as figure and object theatre. Now, for the first time, “Der Dinge Stand / The State of Things” looks closely at the complex ways that its performative methods and materials relate to social and political phenomena.

This is a bilingual publication (German/English).
