We are here, here we are: A circus spectacle about closeness and boundaries

When the stage opens at the Theaterschiff Potsdam on November 14, 2026, a poetic journey begins to the invisible boundaries of human interaction. We Are Here | Here We Are combines theater, acrobatics, music, and space into an unusual stage experience that poses the question: Where does the familiar 'we' end, and where does the foreign 'you' begin?

A wall becomes a tangible boundary

The production makes societal dividing lines physically experienceable. A wall in the auditorium divides the audience and transforms the theater space into a picture of demarcation, belonging, and social distance. What initially appears as a solid barrier begins to move throughout the course of the evening. The dramaturgy does not work with grand explanations but with gestures, symbols, silence, and precise stage action.

Acrobatics, music, and the language of gestures

Under the direction of Ivan Luzan, a theatrical-circus spectacle emerges, where acrobatics and acting intertwine. Yevhen Dashkivskyy, Yefrem Bitkine, Alexandr Novak, and Uliana Luzan express the questions of the production with physical presence, acrobatic tension, and finely tuned movement. The music structures the evening while the space itself becomes a dramatic partner.

Bright melancholy meets subtle humor

Between silent moments and breathtaking acrobatics, an atmosphere of bright melancholy develops. Subtle humor repeatedly opens cracks in the heaviness of the theme and creates an immediate connection to the characters and their relationships. The stage design does not remain merely a backdrop: It directs the gaze, separates bodies, and connects perspectives.

Theater in the special space of the Theaterschiff

The Theaterschiff Potsdam lends the stage experience a distinctive atmosphere. The ship, used as a theater since 1995, has been a part of Potsdam's cultural landscape and welcomes more than 10,000 guests annually. In this special venue, maritime history, concentrated acoustics, and immediate audience closeness meet a production that makes the auditorium itself a part of the action.

Conclusion: A physical encounter with theater

We Are Here | Here We Are promises an evening of theater beyond conventional narrative forms. Artistic precision, poetic images, and an unusual spatial dramaturgy make boundaries visible and question them at the same time. Those who wish to experience theater as a sensory stage experience, as movement, and as immediate audience reaction will encounter an evening with lasting impact at the Theaterschiff Potsdam.
