Revolution: Alles wird gut!

There is a theatre play.

It is based on real stories.

The play shows people
who do not only talk.
They take action.

It gives courage.

What is it about exactly?

The Brachland Ensemble looked for people around the world.
These people have new ideas.
They want to solve problems.

These people are called:
practical possibility-makers.

Their stories are told on stage.
Some people appear live.
For example through video.

The play also shows:
There are many bad news stories in the media.
This creates fear.
It makes people feel unsure.

The project asks:
Is the world really only bad?
Or do we only see a small part of it?

Besides the theatre play, there is a short version.
This version is called: Lecture.
It is for two people.
It is also for schools.
It can also take place online.

Dominik Breuer
and Gunnar Seidel.

The project was created with several theatres
and the State Agency
for Civic Education NRW.

It was supported by many foundations.

also supported the project.
