Theater Performance with Live-Music “The Red Folder” by Urban Theater

An international theater troupe produces a theater performance with live music out of thin air. Without a budget and without a permanent rehearsal room – but with a lot of talent and dedication.

What it is about: This is a theater production of the Urban Theater. The play tells you the story of an international family of three: a Ukrainian father, a Russian mother, and their little daughter. With the break of the war against Ukraine, they were forced to leave Russia but could not go to Ukraine. Their odyssey through 12 countries of Europe took them almost a year and was full of incredible encounters, coincidences, and almost magical strokes of luck. Upon arriving in Berlin and realizing that almost all their former colleagues from the St. Petersburg Urban Theater are also there, it was clear that a theater play had to be created and staged to describe these events – and so it was. 

What kind of support Verarius provided: location rent for rehearsals. 

What else the project needs: opportunities to show the play at permanent theaters and at festivals, all sorts of connections in the sphere of culture, locations for rehearsals, engagement and gigs for the members of the troupe as well as word of mouth. Financial support, sponsoring, etc. would also be appreciated.

The day is approaching when seven directors and 35 actors from 17 countries will gather in Berlin for the international laboratory Focal Point, a project of Berlin’s newly established Urban Theater. I find theater deeply fascinating, as what happens on stage is a miniature universe in itself. At the same time, what happens behind the stage is, for me, almost more captivating. This is an opportunity to observe firsthand to what extent core business principles and best practices apply. The creative economy adds additional constraints and complexities, turning it into a stress test of sorts....
