We Are All Emotional
Festival of Performance Art
Emotion is an intensity that takes place between people, concepts, and objects. Both cognitive and sensory, it moves around and sticks. It arises in a crowd, originating from no particular consciousness. As it circulates in the world, it is difficult to define. Emotions – be they highs or lows – are coded into the social media platforms on which we spend so much of our lives and which thrive on our emotional engagement, as our own emoticons remind us every day. The boundaries between the private and the public move too quickly for us to track. The festival of performance art We Are All Emotional will take place in Prague on May 6–7, 2022. The event is being organized by tranzit.cz / Matter of Art in collaboration with Divadlo X10 and co-curated by members of the tranzit.org network. The program comprises new works by Luis Manuel Otero Alcántara, Larisa David, Helena Eribenne, Anetta Mona Chișa & Lucia Tkáčová, Kolektiv Prádelna/Laundry Collective, Hajnal Németh, Ovid Pop, Maja Štefančíková, Doris Uhlich, and Zorka Wollny. The joint event heralds the upcoming twentieth anniversary of tranzit.org, which will be celebrated in 2022. Admission to the festival is free of charge. The audience can enter and leave the theatre at any time during the performances.
