Bock

About

The production 'Bock' is based on the book of the same name by Katja Lewina and is presented by Theater an der Ruhr in cooperation with Glossy Pain (DE). The staging engages deeply with themes of sexuality and identity, using the literary source as a starting point for a theatrical exploration. The performance is recommended for audiences aged 14 and over. The artistic realization employs various media, including video inserts and specific lighting design, to create a dense atmosphere. The production is part of the 'Grenzenlos Kultur' festival, the longest-running festival for disabled and non-disabled artists in the German-speaking world, underscoring the inclusive and boundary-crossing character of the work. Sensory advisories for the audience include loud music, darkness, flickering light effects, and the use of a fog machine. These elements are integral to the aesthetic concept of director Katharina Stoll and her team.
