This hyper-physical performance combines twelve performers on stage pushed to extremes. A hypnotic performance that is performed over and over at an insistent, frenetic pace. The concert hall becomes a theatre, an arena, a gymnasium.
In this ‘final’ play, we explore alternative paths together, starting from a positive observation: if there’s no solution, it’s because there’s no problem.
