Milo Rau: Hate Radio

For “Hate Radio” Milo Rau used dramatic representation and detailed reconstruction: Genocide survivors performed a program from the Rwandan RTLM radio station which inflamed the 1994 genocide —propaganda between pop hits and sports news.

At HKW, the mixing desk, booth and microphone stage-set is open to visitors while the original performance can be heard on radios and Rau’s actors deliver the statements of genocide survivors in video projections.
