Nesterval makes immersive theatre. Queerness and diversity are starting points for all Nesterval productions. In a mix of classic acting methods and elements from immersive theatre, Martin Finnland and his team have since 2011 created performance theatre experiences in which the audience becomes part of the play. Nesterval’s productions are site-specific projects often performed in non-theatrical spaces that reference the cultural, societal and historical background of the respective venues so as to bring the city’s diversity and history to life. What links the different pieces is that they all reference at least one member of the fictional Nesterval family and that most of them include a game component, allowing audiences to join the players in one way or another. Nesterval’s joint productions with brut Wien include *Nesterval’s Dirty Faust* – a mash-up of Goethe’s *Faust* and 1980s dance movies, *Das Dorf* and *Sex, Drugs &amp; Budd’n’brooks*. Most recently, Nesterval performed *Der Rosa Winkel – Die Geschichte der Namenlosen* at brut Wien in 2024, an advanced version of 2023’s *Die Namenlosen*.
