As part of the “Month of Performance Art” we will present a shared evening of two interactive performances: the award winning “Skype Duet” and the German premiere of “Us the Audience and Them”.

“Skype Duet” by Brina Stinehelfer / Per Aspera Productions returns to Berlin after completing its third international tour.  Performed live simultaneously in New York and Berlin via Skype, this piece provides the audience with the opportunity to personally connect with New York City and it's people (and vice verse).
