WOOD WOOD WOOD - NOTHING'S EVER GOOD
MUSIC THEATER BY CHRISTIANE HUBER
PREMIERE 18/19 JULY 2025
MÜNCHNER KAMMERSPIELE
THEATRE CONCERT // WOOD WOOD WOOD - NOTHING’S EVER GOOD examines the history of the Białowieża Forest on the border of Poland and Belarus and its forgotten and repressed narratives. The forest is a place of refuge, a romantic idyll, tsarist hunting ground, object of research and home to countless animal and plant species - but also a place of resistance and scene of extreme violence.
The performers follow these trails and report on the violence that Jews and partisans suffered here during the German occupation, on the hunting of animals and humans and also on the current situation on this outer border of Europe. In this German-Polish performance, the past and present of the forest becomes an acoustic archive that tells of ideologizations, of dynamics of exclusion, of continuities of violence in these “Bloodlands”, but also of the importance of the forest as a refuge for plants, animals and people. And in the middle of it all: a MUSICIAN, busy looping pasts and presents.
