Rotterdam Presenta
Who can appear as a protagonist at the theatre? Which protagonists are able to question the dominance of the human species? Who gets to tell the story? The performance platform Rotterdam Presenta is developing questions with artists from different artistic areas to investigate forms of living together as well as a diversification of perspectives on the present. They question the familiar power structures between people and their environments and are interested in the destabilization of human performers on stage. The work and its aesthetics remain visible and the dominance of human performers questionable. Their studio and rehearsal stage are set in a former car dealership in Düsseldorf and make up an essential element of their work. At present, it is a construction site for a temporary constructed rehearsal stage. The independence gained by the rehearsal space makes it possible to set up structures and constantly keep on developing their work practice and aesthetics.
