Dear Human Animals by Soya the Cow. Animal rights, climate activism, music and feminism - spiced up with a good dose of drag: that's Soya the Cow. The alter-ego of the artist and musician Daniel Hellmann, who lives in Zurich and Berlin, blurs the boundaries between male and female, human and cow, and manages the balancing act between a serious desire to change the world and a humorous sense of lightness. After appearing at animal rights and climate protests, in theatres and art festivals, and most recently on The Voice of Germany, the singing drag cow shows up with her cabaret show, Dear Human Animals, an evening full of emotional songs, surprising storytelling and mesmerizing live visuals that will immerse you in Soya’s fascinating bovine universe. What would our lives look like if we stopped cutting others to pieces? Can we be free if not everyone is free? An intimate, moving and thought-provoking night, that challenges the human self-image as the center of the universe.
