Schick/Gremaud/Pavillon (Bern, Lausanne)

30 Minutes

Language various lanugages (with German surtitles)
Duration 30 minutes with after-show talk and premiere party

30 Minutes is the 7th performance of a concept based art work called X Minutes. AUAWIRLEBEN bought the piece during an auction at the Contemporary Theatre Days in Brig 2015 for the amount of 2’500 CHF. Hence, AUA became not only owner of a unique piece – as each time X Minutes is performed, 5 more minutes are created on site in the local language(s), but also protag- onist: every coproducer dedicates an object that further participates the performance.

While Schick/Gremaud/Pavillon play with the process of selling and programming, urging programmers to take a risk and to put value into the unknown, the project itself underlines and puts into question neoliberal logics: “more is more”, “the earlier you buy, the cheaper it is” etc.
