So What? [video]

Extract from Performance:

So What?

On Saturday 28th of February A(r)CT presented ‘So What?’ as part of MOTUS festival: Adjustments at Milton Keynes.

‘So What?’ is a comment on people’s ignorance, indifference and inactivity to everything around us. It is a comment on what we ‘decide’ to see or hear and what not, what we think is important and what really is.

An interactive piece of spontaneous choreography and improvisation that surprised, provoked, entertained and asked questions.

Feedback from audience members:

“Brilliant creation! Created a very real sense of someone’s mind wandering – felt like I was daydreaming.” 

“The fact it was improv made it all amazing. Was stunning.”

 “Entertaining but confusing!”

Performers: Ellen Slatkin, Jack Sergison, Julia Bengtsson.

Director: Eleni Papaioannou

Edited Soundtrack: Basscadet by Autechre, Les Marionettes by Zbigniew Preisner, Other Animals by Matmos andThe Path by Zoe Keating.

Voice Over: ‘Broken Records’ by Jacob Laurence Coventry-Peters

Many many thanks to all the brilliant performers Julia, Ellen and Jack, to Jimena for the amazing pictures, to Jacob for his great poem: ‘Broken Records’ and the MOTUS team for their feedback and help.
