Mise en scène : Vasilii Berezin en scenografia
Text: Zdanovich
Music : Dolphin Hospital en Vasilii Berezin
The novel turned out to be about how I remained, despite everything around me, alone in this mad New city — surrounded by an entirely different culture — and how it transformed everything that was happening to me. Incredible discoveries and a newfound sincerity, which, I believe, are the essence of why contemporary theater exists.
This text moved me. I do not know how the story will end, but I know that there will be a happy ending, no matter what. In all realities and amid concentrated dysfunctional conditions, one can discern the notes of a living person who, at some point in their life, was left alone with the text and became an introvert. Like in a tabletop game.
And just like with the rules of a tabletop game, we can only guess how one might breathe the air that could prevent the applied actions of perpendicular devices. For me, this is an experiment of a single actor who can only, through movement, stand on their feet, make mistakes, and take a step forward. And this cannot be the primary function.
A table, music, a chorale, and action.
Yulia Arsen – Do you really wanna live forever?
Dans une zone grise de frustration et d’incertitude, nous naviguons dans un espace dépourvu d’identité culturelle ou temporelle claire. Cet environnement industriel mélancolique ressemble à un purgatoire pour ceux qui n’ont pas d’ancrage culturel clair, piégés dans des cycles de répétition et d’inertie. Le temps semble figé, les événements se succèdent mais nous ramènent d’une manière ou d’une autre au même point, comme si nous étions coincés dans une capsule mémorielle ou que nous étions devenus cette capsule. […] À travers cette performance, nous explorons la possibilité d’accepter notre état statique, la lutte pour se souvenir ou trouver un sens à notre passé, et les moments fugaces de percée vers une clarté brève et insaisissable. C’est un voyage où la réalité familière et pourtant inconnue nous glisse entre les doigts, nous laissant perdus dans une boucle perpétuelle. En somme, ce n’est pas une performance très optimiste, mais elle est faite par/pour des gens très optimistes.
