Description |
In Bad Body Doubles, Karttunen Kollektiv wonders once again deep into to the world of the stage. However, this time the stage does not reveal itself as only a place for light-hearted fun and games. With the use of shamelessly unrealistic expression, the work reaches for the core of humanity. Does the craving for love separate the animate from the inanimate, what makes a human human? Welcome to the arena of foundering ideals. The performance is not suitable for children under 10. |
