On the first evening of the MEDUSA Festival Berlin, the Roter Salon hosts staged readings of two contemporary theatre texts presented in German. The programme brings together „Notte Bianca (Lange Nacht)“ by Tatjana Motta and „ДЕБЕЛАКЪТ (FETTSACK)“ by Silva Marinova. The evening is directed by Marie Bues and performed by an ensemble of twelve actors, with audience talks accompanying the readings. The transnational project, run by partner institutions from Naples, Sofia and Berlin and coordinated in Berlin by Das Kombinat e.V. together with Drama Panorama e.V., is dedicated to contemporary drama and inclusive identities in Europe.
