KILL TIME OR IT'S DEAD TIME In 2003, Macras founded 'Dorky Park'which has thus far realized two substantial projects in Berlin. In the summer of 2003, Dorky Park's Back to the Present was integrated into a derelict early 20th century department store in the middle of Berlin. Almost four hours long. Back to the Present was presented to audiences throughout the house, including two bars and a tea salon. Macras was subsequently invited by the Saarländisches Staatstheater in 2003 as a guest choreographer. Working together with the company, she presented Happiness in Saarbrücken in November 2003. Macras and Dorky Park's then created Scratch Neukölln, the first production of the newly founded HAU 123 theater. Scratch Neukölln integrates her company with ten pre-teen kids, primarily from recently immigrated families living in Neukölln. The work premiered at HAU 1 in December of 2003. Macras has had her premiere with the stage version of Back to the Present at the Schaubühne Am Lehniner Platz in Berlin on February 27th, 2004. She continues to work with Berlin's major venues, including the Volksbühne (RRS), Sophiensæle, the HAU theaters, and the Schaubühne am Lehniner Platz.
