Haus Nummer Null
The space and time installation, “HAUS//NUMMER/NULL” takes place in a dystopian future setting. The climate has reached tipping point and a totalitarian regime has taken over… Mona el Gammal’s space and time installation draws its audience – who enter individually – into a fictitious parallel world and turns them into the autonomous author of the mysterious biography of a certain Ms. N.
From Signa Köstler’s explanatory statement: “Mona el Gammal works without compromises. She devises spaces which, through their obsessive details, become real down to the last prop so that they momentarily replace reality. Mona el Gammal’s “narrative spaces” are far removed from conventional staged dramas but nevertheless reveal a great deal about theatre, especially the role of the audience.”
