THEY KEEP PUTTING WORDS IN MY MOUTH! - AN OPERETTA OF SORTS : ALICE THEOBALD (UK)

About

SUNDAY 18 AUGUST, 6pm Alice Theobald creates a series of vignettes to contribute towards the making of They Keep Putting Words in My Mouth performance and video. As a nod at the longstanding relationship between 'The Artist' and 'The Therapist', Theobald is working with a trainee counsellor to develop a series of part scripted, part directed, part improvised pseudo-counselling-sessions. Throughout these sessions there is a particular focus on language and communication and the noise and nervousness of something that is live or off-the-cuff, revealing the relationship between interior and exterior dialogues. THEY KEEP PUTTING WORDS IN MY MOUTH! - AN OPERETTA OF SORTS is part of SITUATION|EVENT (SIT|EV), a 60-day programme exploring live, durational and participatory contemporary art practice, bringing audiences in direct contact with the process of art making as it unfolds.
