Lessons of Leaking

Mousonturm Studio 1

Performance

Germany in 2021. A couple of days before the people’s vote on quitting the finally estranged European Union, a young PR agent gets hold of top secret information. Its publication would have severe consequences for Europe as a whole. To leak or not to leak? In a group of ten, the audience enacts a political thriller and makes wide-ranging decisions between the conflicting priorities of democracy, transparency, freedom of speech and manipulation. * A project within the framework of the Alliance of International Production Houses supported by the Federal Government Commissioner for Culture and the Media.
