Roller Skating With My Cousin @ BINDERY | space
Part science lab, part disco, Roller Skating With My Cousin is a lively, dark romp in which synchronized roller skaters build a tower under a star-flecked mirror ball sky.
Adapted from Georg Büchner’s Danton’s Death by Julie Rada @ BINDERY | space
The citizens are easily roused and swayed, as a culture of fear infects the city with the constant threat of execution.
During the chaos of the Revolution, a man in isolation has left the political scene to languish in sensual delights. Another man at the zenith of power clings to virtue and a hunger for conformity.
Through the lens of LIDA’s unique aesthetic and devised through collaborative process, Georg Büchner’s classic Danton’s Death, gets a new life in this story of the inevitable triumph of humanity and its insatiable lust for life – against the backdrop of sex, violence, corruption, and bloodshed.
It’s theater of chaos. It’s smoldering, it feels a little dangerous and it’s completely unlike any other theatrical experience you’ll get in this town.
