In a time of historically low state support for independent culture, widespread disdain for culture and education, and accelerating instrumentalization, Entertaining Bad Vibes aims to become a discursive anchor that makes space for difficult conversations in an accessible format. The series' episodes are concentrated around a specific theme that sometimes explicitly deals with an aspect of (Swedish) theater life and sometimes relates to broader cultural and theoretical expressions. The participants are assembled so that different fields of knowledge and positions can engage in dialogue with each other, not based on a naive idea of "having the debate" but to create a place where different perspectives and expertise can raise the bar of the conversation. The conversations take place once a month over three evenings in the fall and will subsequently be available as a podcast.
The conversation series is project-led and moderated by Johanna Malm, actor and performing artist. Participants TBA.
