Weekend Tips: What to Do This Weekend in Berlin
July 17 to 19, 2026: Events, festivals, exhibitions and more things to do for your perfect weekend in Berlin. more
Adorno
In “Adorno”, the Portuguese word for “jewellery”, “ornament” or “decoration”, Alice Ripoll juxtaposes the age of algorithms with that which makes us most human: ornamental gestures, changeable moods, and spontaneous desires - the apparently trivial embellishments which we all use to construct our own lives. The Berlin premiere of Alice Ripoll’s performance also marks the opening of the new series wielding fissures - carving cracks in the surface of the now in Radialsystem.
On her search for connection in difference, the choreographer explores the question of how to conceptualise a “we”, when no two individuals in our population of 8 million people are identical. The audience is carried by a tempestuous group, moving forwards and backwards in waves like the course of history itself. Scenes unfurl in a dreamlike atmosphere, confronting us with what we think is unique: our memories, our bodies, our affections - our inner tides.
Embodied Practice with Hiltinho Fantástico and Katiany Correia

Admission is free. The number of participants is limited, please register in advance.
