Sarah Zsivkovits | World premiere

What happens to a word when I pull it apart, squeeze it, twist it around and put it back together again in a completely new way? How does it sound then?

How does the word D-O-G feel in your mouth? How does the word T-R-E-E resonate in the room? How does the letter R roll off your tongue? And what do you say when I say “jolifantobamblaofallibambla”?

WORDS is an experimental physical performance. Inspired by Dadaist poems, we simply explore and experiment, letting words dance until they become sound, rhythm or new stories.

The performance celebrates a love of nonsense and linguistic adventure. Through shared experimentation, storytelling and sound, the piece fosters a new sense of belonging and of being understood.
