NEW WORK:
Beat the Drum
Through stories, bodies, and the space that we share, Verk Produksjoner attempts to create a contemporary ritual that intensifies the understanding of our interconnectedness. Leading artists, intellectuals and colleagues have shared with us their dreams, anecdotes and thoughts of the present time.
The performance is an ongoing research on our present times. 'Beat the Drum' is our first step in that process and will be a stripped down version where proximity will be the main focus. Our questions and interest is what do you see around you today, what do you wish to see around you and what are you willing to offer?
They are sitting in a cafe, two men and a woman, she says:
-I think the current situation that we are living in is pretty cracky! It is pretty cracky. Per aspara at astra, I really belive in that
-whats that?
-through the tough things to the stars: Per aspera at astra
-Is it latin or italian or..?
-no, yes, yes, it´s latin.
-through the hell, through the hell you get to the stars or something.
-yeah, through the tough, tough times you get through, to the stars. And I think this is something very important. That we have to be aware, first of all, to change things, we have to be aware how things are.
