- 1 Stunde 10 Minuten ohne Pause
Moumouni and Buser merge into one person in COLD. The latter embarks on a wild trip to escape an inner detachment from the world and herself. She wanders sleeplessly through newly built apartments and glacial lakes, wellness hotels and stinking swamps - as well as through her own steaming head. Just don't give in to indifference! But how can you throw yourself into world events without burning up? Politically heated moods, melting poles, social coldness - the second program of the Salzburg Bull award-winning duo tackles urgent topics and seeks a poetic and humorous approach to them.

Fatima Moumouni
Fatima Moumouni is a spoken word poet, presenter and columnist and lives in Zurich. She has been performing on various stages in German-speaking countries since 2011. In addition to solo appearances, she also performs as a duo with Laurin Buser. The two were awarded the Salzburger Stier for their joint evening program ‹GOLD2021›. Together with journalist Uğur Gültekin, she hosts ‹Moumouni/Gültekin› - the first post-foreign, post-migrant late night show in Switzerland. At Gessnerallee Zurich, Moumouni hosts her discussion series ‹Die neue Unsicherheit. Disco Edition›, a plea for more space for insecurity on public stages as a motor for more progressive discourses.
Laurin Buser
Laurin Buser is a spoken word poet, rapper, playwright and presenter from Basel. He has toured with four full-length programs to date. Together with Fatima Moumouni, he was awarded the Salzburger Stier 2022 and won the German-language Poetry Slam Championships in Berlin.

His EP ‹Schmuck› was released on the label ‹Kunstwerkstadt› by Hamburg rapper Samy Deluxe, and his latest solo EP ‹BACCHUS› will be released in fall 2023.
Fatima Moumouni and Laurin Buser write texts full of linguistic presence of mind, subtle self-irony and lyrical explosions
Synchronized in an uncanny way
The interplay of social parodies with this self-critical figure feels like a mantra against indifference - a kind of struggle against social coldness in a self-ironic and poetic way.
