A spectacular musical show which discusses the representation of a nation state, its characters and history. A learning play on myth construction and its reproduction.
Poetry of raw fearless truth and the realest crip insight fully embedded in absolute lyrical lounge.
A chat with Eugene Thacker. Can we rethink the world as unthinkable, and without us?
A community of those without community, for a community to come. A schizo-scenic video-collage of the disturbing ‘normality’ of Moby Dick.
