Jörn J. Burmester (Germany)
Performance Lecture - An unauthorized autobiography of Performer Stammtisch.
PERFORMANCE ART IST LIVE. THEATER IS DEATH.
The play juxtaposes two performative coming-of-age-stories. Jörn J. Burmester is trying to remember his first aesthetic infatuation with the theatre, and its gradual crumbling from ages 14 to 28, roughly 1976 to 1990. But something remained, still live. And so the emergence and coming of age of Performer Stammtisch remains to be reported, 2003 to present.
