DANCE GUEST PERFORMANCE
Depot 1
08 & 09 December 2023
In S 62° 58', W 60° 39', »Peeping Tom« presents a visually stunning cinematographic, theatrical-defying performance that explores human relationships, everyday manipulations and the artistry of what it means to surrender oneself to the stage as a performer. In the new dance theater creation, a ship has run aground in icebergs. A small community of trapped humans only survive this dangerous landscape with the help of nature as they wait for the ice to melt. Suddenly the performance becomes a play within a play and the audience is transported into another reality: that of the artists and the director who create the piece. Do we see the character or the person portrayed? Are the performers being manipulated by the director or are they manipulating him? And what about the audience? Who is manipulating whom here?
