08.04.26 — 10.04.26An uncharted theatrical odyssey through time and space, where unrehearsed brilliance meets climate crisis innovation.
Iranian playwright Nassim Soleimanpour and Italian-Palestinian director Omar Elerian push the boundaries of unrehearsed cold reads to the next level. A new performer takes to the stage at every show without a clue of what is going to be asked of them. Unrehearsed and unprepared, the script becomes their guide as they journey through the playwright’s story, with a live connection to his flat in Berlin.
Fusing technology with the oldest tricks in the book, ECHO (Every Cold-Hearted Oxygen) is an experiment in concept touring for the age of climate crisis: an ambitious, magical and uncompromising production where no one travels yet everybody can be present.

Good to know
This play will be alternately performed by Marijke Pinoy (08/04), Johan Heldenberg (09/04) and Patricia Kargbo (10/04).
They saw the play and said:
It’s beautiful, funny, confusing and penetrating in equal measure, and while this kind of high concept theatre often threatens to become gimmicky, Soleimanpour’s work still surprises every time.
