Fatma & Fatoş

©
Fatma & Fatoş is a collaborative work based on the personal recollections of women who came to Germany in search of happiness, often with nothing more than raw courage in their suitcase. Isolated and hard-working, disdained and misunderstood, but also admired, tenacious, and creating new futures. Women’s voices are the core of this production, which translates the struggle for arrival into great music. You’re invited to come along on this journey to parts unknown, as we discover musical homes both old and new.
