On September 27 and 28, 2025, the performance collective cie .los invites you to tour de l'ost - a scenic exploration of Karlsruhe's inner city east at 4 pm. The audience can expect a one-hour walk, accompanied by scenic adventures and choreographic interventions. The project was created in collaboration with other participants, including HfG alumnus Alexander Thelen.

East of the Via Triumphalis, where the “village” merges with transition and future, where the supposedly venerable coexists with the undesirable and city pigeons fly in from all sides, the performers' bodies get lost in the maze of side streets. In their search for ground, the surroundings begin to shake.

With tour de l'ost, cie .los invites you on a special journey of discovery through the east of Karlsruhe's city center. Between side streets, squares and hidden corners, the performers transform the seemingly trivial into new points of view. The surroundings become a stage, everyday places become islands full of stories.

The project is funded by the city of Karlsruhe and the state of Baden-Württemberg
