If life is to be lived, obey Its absurdity. Sisyphus pushes and pushes. Perhaps the aches lay in your projection? This elevated drama promises that Sisyphus can live happily under his duress. If life is to be lived, obey it's absurdity!
The Velvet Noose is avant-garde physicality, exploring the intimate self in relationship, conflict, and ecstasy. The inanimate animates—revealing therapeutic interludes that bleed into sequenced theatrics.
To liberate the human subconscious, they combine poetic expression, puppeteering mask-work, and original sound design “to form language superior to words,” that invites the spectator into the spectacle. Playfully departing from the natural, the expected, the typical, this is theatre you can feel!
