A physically embodied, raw and reciprocal experience.
"I wish to create a temple for my spirit to emerge through the borders of my skin"
Going Primal is a physical and ritualistic performative novel by Keren Rosenberg which consists of six chapters of performative experiences that seeks to bring the body back in time, to its primal roots: boundless and free.
In immersive cross-disciplinary performative spaces – both in real life and in virtual environments – boundaries between performers, audience, and space dissolve into an energetically charged and ecstatic experience. Using her method of Body-House as the ‘language’ that is shared with both performers and spectators, Keren gives keys to enter to the unfolding experiences with an open heart and a physically present body.
The figure of Margela, is the physical, artistic, and spiritual source from which Keren’s performative novel Going Primal is derived from. It is an ode to her ancestral spirit: a combative hero with a soft heart.
* There will be a pre-talk with Karin Stranned and Angelinah Maponya on March 31, prior to the performances at 8:00 PM. These dramaturgy students engage in a conversation with the audience in the Korzo Club in preparation for the performances by Courtney May Robertson and Keren Rosenberg.
