When the audience writes the stage: PGraph presents NEW WORKS
On November 7, 2026, the TOR 6 Theater house in Bielefeld will transform into a laboratory of spontaneous stage art. The American improvisational theater ensemble Parallelogramophonograph – short PGraph – develops a complete one-act play only at the moment of performance in NEW WORKS. The performance will be in English.
A production without a script
Genre, characters, acting style, themes, and plot emerge live from the audience's impulses. From a single shout, a sultry Southern-Gothic drama can grow, a fast-paced buddy-cop comedy in the style of the 1970s or a futuristic science fiction epic. Every scene occurs before the eyes of the spectators, possessing an irreplaceable tension.
Dramaturgy from the moment
The direction follows no preset text but the fine interplay of presence, reaction, and timing. PGraph transforms spontaneous ideas into clear stage actions and combines precise acting artistry with adventurous playfulness. It is precisely this balance between comedic lightness and dramaturgical consistency that makes the stage experience so immediate.
An international ensemble with great stage experience
Parallelogramophonograph hails from Austin, Texas. Kareem Badr, Kaci Beeler, and Roy Janik have been performing together for over 20 years and have staged more than 1,500 performances. Their special ensemble work thrives on close connection, quick responsiveness, and the ability to create stories from nothing, making them feel as though they have been waiting long for their premiere.
Theater atmosphere in TOR 6
In the hall of the TOR 6 Theater house, the focused acoustics of an intimate performance venue meet the immediate energy of improvisational theater. Light, body, voice, and audience reaction shape the evening equally. The stage design remains open to every twist – and therein lies its aesthetic power: The audience's imagination gets space, while the actors build a vibrant theatrical world from it.
