In the comedy »Streamland«, DAS SANDKORN playfully tackles the hot topic of our time: Artificial Intelligence. The scenes explore the phenomenon in a humorous and critical way. The play can now be seen as a guest contribution at ZKM.
It's about 10 million euros! That's the fee for the leading role in the next STREAMLAND Studios film. Three competitors with big ambitions want to seize this opportunity to finally make their breakthrough. Only one can get the role. But who actually calls the shots? A human being or an artificial intelligence?
Individually, in pairs and all together, the three actors have to prove their skills and versatility in front of the green screen. The AI director throws them into a wide variety of scenes, some familiar from famous films, others completely absurd and questionable. They have to prove themselves as pirates à la Jack Sparrow, explore a desert planet, dive into the deep sea or perform a musical number. This movie casting gets more and more out of hand, because the three of them don't give each other any lip either. After all, there is a lot of money and fame at stake. Or is there something else behind all the madness?
Comedy by and with: Sven Djurovic, Michael Postweiler and Erik Rastetter

About DAS SANDKORN – THEATER & MORE
-
The private theater DAS SANDKORN is located in a listed theater building in the heart of Karlsruhe. Here, the audience is very close to the action on stage in the two small theaters as well as to topical issues that affect people. Special emphasis is placed on specially developed plays, both for the evening program and for children's and youth theater. True to the motto »Stage is life«, the program is as varied and colourful as life itself – from political cabaret to comedies, original plays or classics to music productions with live bands.
DAS SANDKORN offers good entertainment, but also takes a stand – be it with plays beyond the mainstream on socially relevant topics or with social projects: Not only the integrative theater group »D!E SP!NNER!«, but also the senior theater group Basta60+, the youth club and the annual school theater week find an enthusiastic audience here. As an open house, the theater also hosts many guest performances, readings and concerts. SANDKORN's two theaters are also available as rooms for private events – including a stage program and catering.
