Monotime (Performance-as-Research)

The project also informs my article: Towards witnessed thirdness in actor training and performance
(extracts of which have been used for the narrative of the video-captions included)

Active spectators’ reflections:

We entered the space and immediately felt an invitation to play, to explore and to be cheeky! Perhaps it was the makeup, perhaps the braids, the anarchic combination of black and red and the massive dice in the middle that for me, it was saying: Fuck! It is all about luck! I wanted to play more, more time to explore all combinations possible and impossible, to invent new game rules within the group, to interact with the performer who was not the master of the game but one of its subversive players.                             

The whole experience of that room was like a softly mad invitation to another world.
