In Meg Stuart’s new production, six performers and three musicians meet in a place that could be either a nightclub or an arena: a louche, underground retreat, a place of longing and illusion. To the sound of throbbing basses, jazzy piano and percussion, they optimistically try to meet impossible deadlines. After using her own artistic and personal biography as a starting point in her solo work Hunter (2014), choreographer Stuart is now taking her inspiration from people who have withdrawn from reality and invented their own fantastic set of rules. The performers become these ‘freaky insiders’, who interact and connect in their own uncomfortable way. Vacillating between naivety and despair in a world in which they seem to fade away and disappear, they feel compelled to seek out other identities or a new reality.
