BÜHNE DER STILLE 2.1 turns the stage into a metaverse. The audience enters freiversum, a virtual world in which anonymous corporations have created a playground of unlimited possibility, and where the boundary between reality and virtuality is deliberately unstable.

The production was developed by #5630 e.V. and the Teo Otto Theater Remscheid within #Spielraum, a programme of the Kultursekretariat NRW Gütersloh, supported by the Ministry of Culture and Science NRW and the City of Remscheid.
