EUROPÄISCHE SORGESCHULE

In the organizer's words:

We are all daughters, sons, children - stories for the future
by kainkollektiv

SORGESCHOOLS are schools of unlearning and completely new learning, of sharing and linking forms of knowledge that we would never have dreamed of, of energies and practices that make a different way of living together tangible.
Care schools are anti-schools - they are not about memorization. Care schools are places for experiences, energies and memories of a different future than that of the crises and catastrophes of the present.
What do we take with us from our history - as daughters, sons, brothers and sisters in spirit? What do we need when we voluntarily or involuntarily change the center of our lives? What does hospitality look like? What voices are missing in the narratives of the future? How can the voices of women* be amplified? And how can we write, paint, sing and improvise new narratives together?

In collaboration with the In*Haus and Mondo Aperto, kainkollektiv invite you to the next SORGESCHULE at the FWT. Together we will open up a space for listening, sharing and testing - an experimental space for other forms of knowledge exchange, for small scenes, images, song lyrics, sounds and memories.

With the artistic support of musicians, actors and activists, we will create these two days together - as an invitation to communities that have so far been too little visible in the theater and as an experiment in an open, shared theater of concern.

In the evening, we will show the radio play "Return of the King's Daughters" - a sonic search for traces of female genealogy, care and radical tenderness.

Come along, bring your stories - and become part of this collective workshop for future narratives.
