Showcase Beat le Mot (DE)

In their show “ALLES” (Everything), Showcase Beat le Mot will, once and for all, lift the lid on three of mankind’s as yet unsolved mysteries.
First: How to turn shit into gold.
Second: How to breathe life into a lump of clay.
Third: How to build a perpetuum mobile. 

To the clattering tune of a wooden perpetual motion machine, Maori eurythmists, magicians, filibusters, soup chefs, golems and homunculi will argue their way, via various nice and nonsensical tangents, to salvation. Aided by several overhead projectors, they will enlighten you with moons made of glass cleaner and florescent sea anemones, with a spirit stroboscope, disco balls, lasers, mirrors, and the golden cauldron. The light sends out its rays to distant Atlantis where we find Anselmus, the archivarius Lindhorst, Pinocchio, Serpentina – the Serpent Girl, Joseph Schwendimann, Seraphim, William Blake, and everyone and everything. In Atlantis, the covers have fallen and we can see everything for what it really is. Infinite.

Showcase Beat le Mot is an international performance and theatre collective. Since their formation this four-member group has worked in various artistic fields and has produced and staged performances, shows and theatre pieces all over Europe. Because of their way of integrating different pop-cultural elements as music, sports, comics, cinema and TV in their pieces and because of their humoresque approach of dealing with complex political and social issues, they consistently attract interest among international press. Showcase Beat le Mot is mentioned as one of the internationally relevant contemporary performance groups in Hans-Thies Lehmann’s “Postdramatic Theatre”.
