KRAKE

Interactive performance in public space: KRAKE

27.09. to 09.10., for children aged 7 to 10

You stretch out your tentacles, I reach out my hand to you.
It's time we introduced ourselves.

Something glimmers beneath the surface of the water, an arm shoots out, then another and another. The octopus looks at us with its curious eyes. It has come to Vienna with its tentacles to get to know us and clarify a few things. About its camouflage abilities, its intelligence, its brain, which extends from its head to its arms. What can these eight tentacles tell us? What is it like to be part of a whole? How can we learn to think collectively?

In "KRAKE", the audience encounters three performers and an octopus, which the Moradavaga collective has placed as a sculpture in the public space of the MuseumsQuartier. Unlike in a theatre space, which draws a clear line between art and audience, in this interactive performance the audience encounters the fascinating sea creature directly, meets an angry starfish and a street pigeon that philosophises about life and asks questions about coexistence and communication.
