»Speak and Spell« is curated for the fourth time by Spike, and presents contributions to language, the theatrical body, the authenticity of the non-authentic, the exalted, the moment of exaggeration, the amateur, participation, desire. The contributions to this year’s edition are concerned with a discussion of language and meaning, of truth and lies. The talking, lecture and singing performances disorient the viewer, to the point where language fades and the body picks up the thread of truth.
