Double Bill

Taminator – THIN

Through krump and cello playing, Taminator reveals a slice of her life in this autobiographical work dealing with anorexia nervosa. THIN highlights the causes and symptoms of this disease, moving beyond the physical to look into the ego. The ego usually develops during childhood in response to different experiences, some traumatic, and can lead us to make unconscious decisions about ourselves, others, life, and bring about destructive patterns. More than a personal story, the piece aims to raise awareness about the ego, from which no one escapes.

Nicole Jacobs – Alone in the Living Room

Affected by the ambient glow of ordinary lamps, our perception of light, darkness, shadow and illusion shapes a universe that perpetually distorts and reconfigures itself. In this shifting realm, we are called to question the elusive divide between reality and memory, illuminating the intrinsic contradictions that exist within us all. Alone in the Living Room reflects on the nuanced experiences of grief, solitude, joy, self-confrontation and the absurdities that arise within the intimate confines of one’s own living space. This contemporary acrobatic floorwork solo crosses the boundaries between beauty and the grotesque, delving into the obscure space where they converge.
