Short Cut(s) & Catharsis
For its first collaboration with The Blue Elephant Theatre, Sweet or Sour presents Short Cut(s) & Catharsis, a double bill of performance art on the 11th, 12th & 13th June 2009.
Catharsis depicts the personal quest of a disgraced man for rebirth through a series of choreographed rituals and visual confessions. Blending live projections, introspective movements with ambiguous written and spoken words, this performance art piece explores the themes of redemption, inner struggles to regain dignity and self-esteem.
Short Cut(s) is a performance installation inspired by the Ancient Greek and Medieval theories of The Classical Elements. Referring to R. Altman’s film, Short Cuts, this experimental piece re-interprets some of D.H Lawrence existentialist poems through movement, spoken words and multimedia to explore the feelings of isolation, resistance and the constant fear of alienation experienced by 5 lost souls condemned to wander eternally in the Abyss.
