IYASA Inkululeko Yabatsha School of Arts (Zimbabwe) and Theater Strahl (Germany)

Three German and three Zimbabwean actors find themselves in a transition. Caught in between two worlds, in between their cultures, they build an utopian society of their own. Loaded with a great sense of humour, dance, and music, the ensemble deals with societal prejudices and cultural diversities. How do prejudices and cultural diversities affect our perspectives when we encounter new environments and different people? Do we create new images? With courage and honesty the artists meet each other eye to eye and deal with the topics of hope, fear, freedom, community, faith, and money. They seem to conclude that we are different but the same.
