DAS MANNHEIM EXPERIMENT

2017

28 years ago: 1989. A rupture, still tangible for many among us.

28 years from now: 2045. Considered by experts as the year when artificial intelligence surpasses human capacities.

How can we imagine this? How can we make it tangible?

In Das Mannheim Experiment seven children try to do just that. They invite us into their future and insist that we create a concrete imagination of it for ourselves. They, who will live most of their lives in that seemingly unfathomable future know what is at stake in making it graspable for us, so we can reflect on our role in shaping what that future will be like.

Das Mannheim Experiment was created on invitation by and at the Nationaltheater Mannheirm, where it premiered in May 2017, and has been on repetoire also for the 2017-18 season.
