When Words Break Out and Stories Are Created in the Moment

On Saturday, October 17, 2026, the KULT in Braunschweig will transform into a laboratory of spontaneous stage art. At Reading Meets Improv: One Reads, the Other Spins!, the precise sound art of the reading meets the unpredictable energy of improvisational theater.

A Receipt Becomes a Monologue

Dirk Lausch reads from the stand what the audience brings: poems, letters, excerpts from novels, menus, official correspondence or everyday finds. Each text gains a new theatrical presence through voice, rhythm, and interpretation. Written lines create images in the mind, characters take shape, and even inconspicuous texts begin to glow.

Thomas Jäkel Spins the Story Further

As soon as the last sentence fades away, Thomas Jäkel begins. The improvisational artist and director picks up motifs, moods, and keywords, improvises, invents further, and leads the audience into surprising narrative worlds. The dramaturgy is created live: without a fixed script, without rehearsals, without a safety net.

Every Evening Remains Unrepeatable

The special theatrical experience lies in the transience of the moment. Acoustics, language, pauses, and audience reactions merge into a unique staging. The theater atmosphere in KULT becomes a resonance space for a performing art that draws directly from the moment and takes a new direction with every twist.

Participation is Explicitly Welcome

The audience does not just sit in the auditorium but provides the material for the evening. Those who bring their own text can present it on stage and experience how a scene, a poem, or a completely new story spontaneously emerges from it. Thus, literature meets improvisation, careful observation meets creative risk, and reading culture meets immediate stage magic.

Conclusion: Language as Adventure

Visitors can expect a humorous, surprising, and highly vibrant evening between reading, improvisational theater, and literary experimentation. Those who wish to experience the creation of a story firsthand will find a format full of playful enthusiasm, linguistic wit, and creative tension at KULT. Please bring texts and discover this unrepeatable stage experience live.
