About performance:
"Now only die - and then: the jump on the horse."
The boundlessness of the country of Siberia, its emptiness, cold and apparent hostility becomes a stage for the limits of mankind. In the loneliness, the inner Siberia, the unpredictability begins and everyone is confronted with oneself. If nothing distracts, vital matters become urgent. How do we spend our lifetime? What do we keep up when no one is watching? What are we longing for? What comes over us in the emptiness? Inspired by travel experiences and poets who spent time in Siberia involuntarily. A theatre expedition which leads to hazardous places and provokes emotions, which manifests, however, that it is incredibly lucky to meet someone at the edge of the world, with whom knowledge, fears and love can be shared. Performance is inspired by the work of Russian writer Varlam Shalamov, The Kolyma Tales.
