# Event Details - **Event Name**: BAD NEWS by Elly Jarvis - **Event Start and End Date**: Sat, 17 Jan, 2026 at 08:00 pm – Sat, 17 Jan, 2026 at 09:30 pm - **Event Description**: THE LAB: Bad News Bathe in wine, bathe in milk, Bathe in horse broth, bathe in silk. Ice, steam, sauna, spring— Let your body sizzle and sting. If you’re a bird: you use dust! If a snail: a puddle’s a must. Come one, come all, we must get clean. Elly the Batheness of Berlin Invites you to her bathing dream. Bathing is glorious: water grants daily rebirth, soap frees us from what want to leave behind. Elly the Batheness of Berlin is enamored with it—in tubs, hammams, mountain springs, or saunas; with a sponge, a brush, hands, or a stone. All bathers are welcome to this work-in-progress lecture-performance exploring: What is a bath? What is bathing? A historical, a cultural, a social, an artistic, and an American bath; and even bathing across species! Bathing has deep waters—with topics like PURITY, FERTILITY, (RE)BIRTH, HYGIENE, OLFACTION, MODESTY, and the FEMALE DOMAIN. Elly the Batheness of Berlin is going deep into bathing lore and invites you to join. In 2026, bad ideas are great again! Elly Jarvis is a theater maker of many passions and interests, who wholeheartedly believes in play as an emancipatory and transcendental act and theater as a forum for examining polemics, for encouraging dialogue and for inviting humans to listen and to witness. Trained classically at the University of Michigan in Theater Performance, she received her Master’s in Theater Education at the Berlin University of the Arts, where she taught her first course on devising theater summer semester 2025. Her work is almost always participatory: such as Blaupause (FELD Theater 2024/2025), an interactive children’s theater piece about sadness in conjunction with the color blue; currently she is working on a piece called The Very Best! (Das Allerbeste!) with an inclusive group and the RambaZambaTheater. Elly works regularly for the Berliner Ensemble, the Deutsche Oper and does KulturMachtStark projects for the ATZE Musiktheater. For Elly, theater is a marvelous excuse to dig deep into questions that tantalize her, it pushes her to find aesthetic forms that expand her understanding of that which makes her curious. Many things make her curious, but the primary list is currently: snails, colors, slowness, dialogue, sidewalks, lifestyles, boundaries, gender, arrangements, impressions, visual arts and paintings, to name a few. In her residency, Elly will dive deep into one of her curiosities in a manner that is participatory and stimulating to the audience. She will be recently back from the United States and full of impressions, photographs, interviews and certainly some concerns. Expect a work-in-progress with a deep foundation in research and exploration, an invitation to participate in this exploration and an open-ended question.
