Performance-duo QUARTO will share some of the work and practices they have developed in the context of the ROPE-series over the past ten years. You will be dealing with the rope as an emblem, as a riddle and a problem, collectively encountering its qualities and dealing with its entanglements.⁠ ⁠

About

These are some of the questions that will be addressed: How do you untie a huge knot collectively? What happens with the limits between bodies and objects when dealing with a very long rope? What kind of collective and personal memories pass through our bodies when we start manipulating the rope?⁠ ⁠

Between manipulation and being exposed to the rope’s very own dynamic, a particular kind of body emerges, a body that is situated between different cultures, languages and realities; a body that carries the experience of the moment, memories of the past and imaginations and fictions of an encounter yet- to-come.⁠ ⁠

The workshop is open to all.⁠ ⁠

*Fest en Fest are offering a FREE ticket for each workshop participant for Karen Røise Kielland & Katja Dreyer’s show Cry me a River - Sat 8 Feb | 8pm | Laurie Grove Performance Lab 1 ⁠
