Programme | 400asa has been commissioned to organise the official federal celebration of Expo.02. 400asa's demand that no Swiss flags be allowed at the celebration and the call to the population to burn their passports caused a stir. ‘Who is paying for this nonsense?’ asked one actor at the beginning of the performance. Self-irony, which the theatre group 400asa led by Lukas Bärfuss (author) and Samuel Schwarz (director) also expected from the audience on the main stage at the Arteplage Biel-Bienne and in front of the screens at home. The video shows the final chord of the festival play, which involved the trial transformation of a group of candidates into bonobo apes. | |
