On the night of April 30th, Hexenfeuer are raditionally lit to mark the arrival of spring and ward off witches and evil spirits, these bonfires become gathering points for the outcasts, the healers and the unruly, places to share what could not be said in daylight, to pass on forbidden knowledge and to build community at the margins of society.

This Walpurgisnacht, that fire burns again, ignited by the collective Wide Open!

Berlin’s creatures of the night crawl out of the darkrooms and dance floors to take center stage at Berliner Ringtheater as part of Neue Zukunft’s Hausfest, with the audience invited to circle, dance and celebrate around a 360° raised platform.

Wide Open calls on six queer underground artists to fuel a Hexenfeuer with their most ritualistic performances of DIY spellcasting.
