I feel all the feels and they feel me too

Who am I really? Who am I without a filter, without a hashtag. How am I feeling? What do I do with big emotions, do I put them away? How nice would it be to yell in the middle of the road and then just keep walking. And it would be even nicer if everyone did that sometimes.

Am I afraid of death? Or am I afraid of life? Do I have to plan my life? Or just go with the flow? And why do we do things the way we do them and not differently?

Life: a big deal - and quite elusive. We give it a try. We reconstruct life; we begin at the beginning and end at the end or beyond. We celebrate life in all its facets: the ups and downs, the embarrassing moments and the moments of euphoria. And while we're at it, let's reflect on those who lived before us, who embraced all of life: the Greek gods and goddesses.

» God is a band – a reconstruction of life «
is a performance concert that merges dramatic figures from Greek mythology with versions of ourselves. In which hard beats alternate with dreamlike soundscapes, in which Olympus grows and we sing, play and move you, dear audience, as mythical Madonnas. Are you celebrating the art of living with us?

"Godly Concert" could well be a characterization of the rather weird, funny, and sometimes profound concert "God is a band - a reconstruction of life". Until December 16 (2022) and then again towards the end of March 2023, the Braber Sisters rock, swing and whisper as "Wolf Collective" and KMET on the stage of DschungelWien, the theater for young audiences in the MuseumsQuartier.
