A Crash Course in Cloudspotting | Theaterfestival Bern


A woman lies on a concrete, angular bench in a city landscape. Her eyes are closed as autumnal sunlight shines on her and her long brown hair falls towards the ground. Her hand reaches gently upwards.

An invitation to pause.  To rest.  To listen.

A Crash Course in Cloudspotting asks you to connect with the subversive act of lying down.

It’s about public rest and acts of bravery we don't see.

About scaling the distances and depths of human connection.

The piece is part verbatim theatre, part meditation on rest, gravity and connection.

Expect a rare and intimate audio journey of fragile beauty, just for you.

55 minutes audio experience to be experienced at home.

Free
