In the Engine Room, machines are roaring again, coal dust swirls up, the building’s facade becomes transparent and crumbles. What happened to Uwe? And who will supply energy to those who come after him? Headlamps point the way to the singing. Bodies tremble and brim with energy, while the turbine hall begins to glow again. The canteen is open, a company choir sings.
Through ARCHIVE TOUR, kollektiv:proton builds a bridge between art and industrial work. A body of research, in which the goal is to explore connecting elements and to deconstruct past imprints.
ARCHIVE TOUR maps a path, an exploration, a course through E-WERK Luckenwalde. The audience is invited to dive into the memories of past workers who spent their lives in the former brown-coal power station, uncovering a lifetime of work and the imprint it has left - manual work that belongs to a fading generation at the emergence of AI and digital transformation.
The production is an interdisciplinary and intergenerational intervention that explores what work can do, trigger and achieve in terms of hopefulness.
The performance will be in German but we encourage audiences of all backgrounds to attend!
