Sieben … aber einmal auch der helle Schein
The number seven enjoys a special status and serves as a source of inspiration in many cultures - from the myth of creation to the seven deadly sins. In Sieben, seven avowed sinners delight in dedicating themselves to their own passions and vices through choreography and music, with a great deal of humor: their lust, their greed, their vanity, their jealousy, their laziness, their sex drive, their consumption. And, in doing so, they continuously and playfully explore morality, which always has to be reinvented and redefined. Texts by the Thikwa performers, created over the course of improvisations and interviews, are transformed into seven song compositions by the songwriter Susanne Betancor, known as Die Popette.
