ON HOW TO DEAL WITH A HUMAN

What is it that makes us essentially human? That connects us one to another? On How to Deal with a Human gives answers – not in the form of a finished stage play, but rather as a performative venture: Together with dancer Martyna Lorenc and guitarist Victor Toral, Iris Heitzinger embarks on a quest for moments of permeability and vulnerability, confidently tuning into their audience. 

An experimental setup, a game, an invitation to leave the comfort zone: a live dialogue that unfolds differently every evening. The main working method is improvisation, the main theatrical stance is spontaneity. Stage art as a medium of ultimate presentness is fathomed to its utmost limits.
