When Knowledge Becomes a Stage: Facts&Fiction at the Forum Knowledge
On Sunday, October 11, 2026, the Forum Knowledge in Göttingen transforms into an open stage for spontaneous stories, humorous songs, and surprising perspectives. The improvisational theater duo Kießling&Kaffka takes the audience on a special tour through the rooms of knowledge.
Improvisation Meets Science
Nele Kießling and Jannis Kaffka develop their scenes live in the moment. Impulses from the audience and thoughts from the exhibition communicators serve as a starting point for a dynamic dramaturgy where facts and fictions intertwine. Each performance is unique and cannot be repeated.
The Rooms of Knowledge as a Performance Space
The production leaves the classic theater space and moves through the exhibition. Between exhibits, historical contexts, and current discourses, loving stories, pointed observations, and musical ideas emerge. The set design is provided by the Forum Knowledge itself: its rooms, objects, and the atmosphere of a house where science becomes visible, audible, and narratable.
Close to the Audience, Open to the Moment
Facts&Fiction thrives on direct encounters. The audience's reactions become the driving force of the dramaturgy, while the duo's acting skill shapes great scenes from small prompts. Thus, the improvisational theater tour combines theatrical atmosphere, knowledge transfer, and shared wonder into an interactive stage experience for curious visitors.
An Unusual Approach to the Forum Knowledge
The approximately 60-minute tour opens new access to the rooms of knowledge. The familiar suddenly seems foreign, abstract content gains a voice, and scientific topics meet the audience with wit, warmth, and surprising ease. The direction remains committed to the moment: no scene is pre-made, no evening is like another.
Conclusion: Facts&Fiction invites you to experience the Forum Knowledge with new eyes. Those who appreciate interactive theater, improvisation, and lively science communication will find here an extraordinary stage experience full of humor, closeness, and spontaneous ideas. Participation is free; prior registration via the event calendar of the Forum Knowledge is requested.
