THE EUROPEAN CREATION : “SMOKE AND MIRRORS”

Under the direction of Felix Römer, nine European poets and Ludwig Berger, the musician of

the German experimental poetry slam band Großraumdichten, met for one very interesting

week in Berlin. Their goal: sharing, mixing, discovering different approaches to words and

stage creating an original piece.

From this meeting emerges “Smoke and mirrors”, a 35 minutes performance at the frontier of

spoken words, theater and music. Playing with words, styles and atmospheres, “Smoke and

mirrors” explores the freakness of society thanks to a polyphonic and pluri-linguistic trip into

poetry.

Performed for the first time on the closing night of the European Poetry Slam Meeting the 3rd

of October in Berlin, “Smoke and Mirrors” will be on tour in 21 European cities in February ,

March and April.
