The Ghosts Are Returning
In "The Ghosts Are Returning", GROUP50:50 tells the story of seven "pygmy skeletons" that a Swiss doctor brought from the Congo to Geneva in the 1950s. The artists from Congo, Switzerland and Germany travel to the equatorial forest to meet the nomadic Mbuti people who are threatened by illegal logging and driven out of their territories. Singing and dancing with them, they develop a ritual to allow the seven spirits to find rest. The result is a multimedia musical theater piece about (neo)colonial crimes, death and mourning. Shows on Wednesday, 5 October 2022 - Saturday, 8 October 2022 at Vorarlberger Landestheater Bregenz.
