Recherche-Theater
April 2021
For the European community are project MOVING BORDERS, we will transform our Mobile Office into a Mobile Ark, which will be cruising around to public places in Johannstadt and Neustadt. We will ask questions: What should be saved when the water is rising? What things, but also knowledge, abilities and what individual information may not be lost?
We got a confirmation from Fonds Darstellende Künste for the project FORMATOR Tranforming common input! We are super happy and will be adding a digital platform to our analog research formats, in which you can all participate. We will start building now, the digital platform will follow during the summer;)
#takePart NEUSTART KULTUR
We have started our first two days of the residency with laboratory BORDER RESEARCH and many questions, thoughts, movements with time, space and location in their borders have impacted, broken up, left and changed.

We are taking part at the digital congress DIVIDED HOMES Germany and Europe as Intercultural Space of Experience at Deutsches Hygiene Museum in Dresden. Initially, we planed to participate analogous with a performance of our production TRANSITRAUM. Not possible, unfortunately. Then we had the idea to bring our Mobile Office for Real Affectivites. Also not possible. Corona is controlling us. But now we are really happy to be able to participate online: our team with Katja Heiser, Svea Duve and Julia Amme will be presenting different research forms and test them with participants.

#takePart NEUSTART KULTUR
We had our first opening night and four additional shows at http://Societaetstheater Dresden! We only had 12 visitors each show, it was a very exclusive event! We had a great audience and we are excited already for the upcoming shows in January 2021!!! Quote from a married couple from Stuttgart: ‘The trip to Dresden was already worth it just because of this show!’ 😉 THANK YOU!
Thankful + happy!! Next year we will be able to do a research residency in cooperation with Hellerau Europäisches Zentrum der Künste and with support by ‘Fond Darstellende Künste’ through the format takeCareResidenzen. At our ‘laboratory border research’ the artists Julia Amme, Svea Duve, Katja Heiser, Nora Schott, and Katja Turtl will test out border crossing formats. 2021 – we will stay creative and create something!
Supported by ‘Fonds Darstellende Künste’ from financial resources by the representative of federal government for culture and media
We are very happy about the scholarship Art despite Corona (Kunst trotz Corona) via We shape Dresden (Wir gestalten Dresden) within the additional financial resources by the Amt für Kultur und Denkmalschutz Dresden. Because of that, out following production TRANSITRAUM at the Societaetstheater will be taking place with two shows on Saturday and Sunday!!! And we will make sure that everyone sticks to hygiene rules;)
We are very happy that Nils Michael Weishaupt is part of our team. As a sound designer he will create an audible component as part of the whole interactive room installation!!!

As a free and for more than 10 years established theater, it is not very smart to change our name. Many of our benevolent colleagues advised us not to do it. We did it anyways and with a new name and a new website we are beginning to search for missing dots:
Theater La Lune is now called missingdots.
‘Missing Dots’, a term used in printer language, are missing spots on a print, where ink from the pan of the printing plate cylinders is not put correctly onto paper. Mostly, ‘missing dots’ happen on rough or uneven surfaces or on too fast running gravure printing presses.
We are interested in missing dots on the rough and uneven areas of reality and society. Here, we research and investigate, ask questions and make the obtained material interdisciplinary, performative and scenic experienceable.

– Watch out: looking for a cargo-bike!-
From December 2019, missingdots cycles with a mobile bike-office through Dresden. Loaded with different measuring instruments and other stuff, we will stop at different public places, invite for coffee, measure real affectivities and ask questions: What is going on with Dresden? Was upsets me, what do I miss? What should, what must, what would I do, if….? What is overwhelming, what should everybody know, etc.?
At the moment, we are planning, looking for a bike, build, screw and develop the question barometer…
