More culture again! What we expect in 2021

Waiting for real performances to take place again after the disaster year, that is, in front of a “real” audience, has long been agony. The performing arts live mostly from direct contact. It was supposed to be that time again in the theater in just under three weeks. In any case, it will be a show of force. What can we expect?

The current magic word among culture workers has something romantic about it, but it also resonates with desperation: “Longing!” The artists finally want to get back on stage or sit in the orchestra, in front of real spectators. If 2020, with its lockdowns imposed by the pandemic, has proven anything, it is this: the fourth wall does not really exist. The audience is part of the artwork, just as the readers are implicitly co-creators of the text. Corona broke this magic. What are the consequences for the season that we hope will resume soon?
