Seasons is an audiovisual theater performance that explores the uncanniness of the broken time cycle of the seasons and how this affects our feelings, memories and perception of time.
The concept of seasons is both a meteorological and cultural definition based on our experience of how and when seasons should occur. Starting from the ruins of the idea of the four seasons, new fictions and scenic images are created, around strange experiences of seasons that both disappear and escalate. The performance is staged as a dramatic anthology* where texts by four writers – Penny Yiou Peng, Matilda Tjäder, Olof Runsten och Michael Marder – in combination with audiovisual images create an unpredictable and suggestive whole about alternative ways of relating to the seasons.
The performance is arranged in collaboration with Skogen. After the performance we will serve dinner – feel free to stay and eat with us and the artists. In conjunction with the performance, the printer publication SEASONS will also be launched, with texts and images that form the basis for the stage work. The publication will be sold in a limited edition in the foyer.
* Anthology = a wreath of flowers/poems.
