Susanne Martin and Gabriele Reuter once again have gathered an exciting cast of improv experts for a weekend, and they will be presenting their results. This time the Critical Mass Ensemble will be guests of the PSR Collective at the Heizhaus of Uferstudios.
You are invited to watch and get a little active yourself in between. Bring your friends, children and family along.
The name and a willing pool of artists emerged from an inspiring performance weekend in the Studios of Sasha Waltz & Guests in December 2025.
The Critical Mass Ensemble is reassembled each time from a pool of improvisational dancers based in Berlin. At each performance, you will see the critical mass of us on stage – those who have time on that day to create a spontaneous performance for an audience after a short joint rehearsal. Facilitated by Susanne Martin and Gabriele Reuter, the group varies in size, form, location and costumes, but always remains committed to the art of improvisation in performance as its central artistic practice. In view of funding cuts and the loss of professional infrastructure, this is their strategy to minimise production costs and maximise group size and the joy of performing together.
