FIASCO
CREATION 2021
Fiasco communicates enthusiastically about what fails to unite us and what hinders humanity’s dialogues. The postures it invokes are packed with the symbols that surround us, but they also manage to capture the freedom of living in discord, of belonging to a group despite everything and finding pleasure beyond all that. What sorts of ‘gestural citizens’ will be revealed to us? How do they form communities and co-exist? Is it in the same way we do?
Fiasco is a journey nourished by punk iconography and an almost childlike delight in rule-breaking. The body hijacks and manipulates authority, primarily the authority of music over movement. Fiasco is noisy. It’s an explosive release of energy that shows us what makes us laugh and what sets our teeth on edge. It reveals the optimistic and the restrictive. It’s a danced close-up on the tensions of our time as they journey through our bodies.
