i feel nothing at Ballhaus Ost, Berlin, 4 December 2026

It follows two factory workers of cyborgs4everything GmbH who keep a machine running while drifting into the mechanics of their own power plant. Using drills and chainsaws, Pflüger and Weibel interweave manual and sexual gestures, and raise questions about functionality, productivity and the role of emotions and desire.

Ballhaus Ost is a venue for independent theatre, performance, dance, music theatre and new music in Berlin. It was founded in 2006 by the directors Uwe Moritz Eichler and Philipp Reuter and the actress Anne Tismer, and it is housed in a hall built in 1907 for the Freireligiöse Gemeinde Berlin.
