Renaissance

The stage of Renaissance is a flowing spring; a place for rebirth and new forms of imagination. The performance beckons the audience to a realm of wonder, pleasure, and oddity.

Renaissance summons forth mythical bodies that turn fantasies into flesh. Its stage aspires to make space for the normative corporeality that is permeated by power to renew and transform itself. The performance looks for ways to become re-enchanted in a world where we have lost touch with our imagination. Renaissance reaches out towards new kinds of disorders, connections, pleasures, and perversions.

Renaissance is co-produced by WAUHAUS and Zodiak. The premiere is on 3rd of December.
