After months of dedication, creativity, and collaboration, I am thrilled to share the successful completion of my project "ConTaKt: Consciousness in Relation", which recently premiered at the esteemed Theater Arche.
This journey has been nothing short of transformative, both as an artistic endeavor and as a profound exploration of human connection.
At its core, ConTaKt is an invitation to delve into the interplay of consciousness and relationships. Through innovative storytelling, evocative performances, and immersive staging, the project sought to bring audiences into a shared space of reflection, asking pressing questions about how we relate—to ourselves, to one another, and to the world around us.
The support and enthusiasm from everyone involved—actors, crew, collaborators, and the Theater Arche community—have been nothing short of inspiring. Together, we transformed an abstract concept into a tangible experience that resonated deeply with audiences.
Here’s some audience feedback:
"What a lovely show! Beyond the incredible performances and the exploration of ways to access our consciousness, seeing you as a couple navigating this journey made me so happy. Thank you, Miriam Strasser and Manuel Waldgeist. I’m looking forward to everything you create next."
"Congratulations on a successful show! I was—and still am—deeply impressed by your performance. Hats off to you!"
"Thank you for this experience! It was so profound, poetic, and even fun! It truly touched me."
"Endless thanks for the chapter PLAY! I literally laughed for 10 minutes straight—it felt SO GOOD!"
"Amazing expressiveness! You were fantastic—thank you for taking us on this journey!"
"You are brilliantly, wonderfully crazy—and absolute geniuses at it!"
The positive feedback from attendees, who shared how ConTaKt sparked new ways of thinking and feeling, is a testament to the power of art to move and inspire. Witnessing the audience’s engagement reaffirmed the importance of creating work that not only entertains but also provokes thought and fosters connection.
I want to express my heartfelt gratitude to Theater Arche for providing the perfect stage for this project and to everyone who joined me on this journey. Whether you supported behind the scenes, attended the performance, or shared your reflections, your contributions have been invaluable.
A special thank you to my incredible stage and light designer, Andreas Ryba.
His contribution was so invaluable that words can’t even begin to capture it!
Andreas deserves a medal, a statue, and maybe even a country named after him.
Truly, this project wouldn’t have been the same without his talent and dedication.
As I look back on ConTaKt and all it has achieved, I am filled with excitement for what lies ahead. This is not an ending but the beginning of new explorations into consciousness, art, and the threads that bind us all together.
Thank you for being a part of this milestone, and I look forward to sharing more creative journeys with you in the future.
Stay connected for updates, reflections, and upcoming projects!
