"You can killjoy when you don’t laugh at an offensive joke or when you refuse to cover over the injustices with a smile. You can killjoy because of what you do not and will not celebrate; national holidays that mark colonial conquest or the birth of a monarch. You can killjoy by entering the room because your body is a reminder of a history that gets in the way of the occupation of space. You can killjoy by asking to be addressed by the right pronouns or by correcting people if they use the wrong ones. You can killjoy by asking for that panel or that plenary not to be all white men, again. You can killjoy by asking to change a room because the room they have booked is not accessible, again."

This quote by Sara Ahmed serves as inspiration for caner teker's two-week residency at Tanzhaus Zurich – and possibly a springboard for a new work. We are already very excited to find out!

The work-in-progress Sharing will be followed by a brief audience discussion.
