Public discussion about Dries Verhoeven's "Wanna Play?"

  • Dialogue

Dries Verhoeven‘s intervention „Wanna Play? – Love in Times of Grindr “ has caused strong emotional responses and critics from the queer communities as well as from the general public. Together with HAU Hebbel am Ufer, the artist has decided to temporarily leave his container on Heinrichplatz and face the public discussion in a direct conversation. The event will take place on 5 October, 7pm at HAU2 (Hallesches Ufer 32, 10963 Berlin). Eike Wittrock will moderate, Martin Dannecker will also be on the podium. The debate will be open for contributions from the audience early on. We hope to have a productive discussion.

Latest information for arrival

There is currently a construction site on Hallesches Ufer between Wilhelmstraße and Möckernbrücke underground station. There is a divided replacement route for pedestrians (right) and cyclists (left), which are separated by a yellow ground line. The carriageway is narrowed to one lane.

Travelling to HAU2 via U Hallesches Tor:

If you are coming from Hallesches Tor underground station, you will have to use an alternative footpath from Wilhelmstraße / Hallesches Ufer junction, which is separated from the carriageway by a construction fence – the actual footpath is currently closed. Please note: the alternative route is also used by cyclists. Pedestrians should keep to the right. We therefore currently recommend that visually impaired or blind visitors come to the HAU with an accompanying person.

Arrival HAU2 via U Möckernbrücke:

When you leave Möckernbrücke underground station, please stay on the footpath on the canal side until you reach Hallesches Ufer / Großbeerenstraße junction – the opposite side is currently closed due to construction work.
