On stage, a house appears from nothing. It goes up fast, choreographed like time-lapse photography. Residents move in, move out, get evicted, burn it down, loot it, rent it, remodel it, get married and divorced in it, grow up in it, die in it, haunt it. And all the while, they leave and live among traces of residents from the present, past and future. They throw a party, as if everyone who ever lived there cohabitated, transcending time and space.
HOME is a large-scale performance work that explores and explodes the relationship between “house” and “home”. A visual and physical spectacle, HOME combines dance, illusion, live music, homespun engineering, and inventive of audience interaction to compose a work that asks, “Where is home? If it is not a place, what is home?”
HOME aims to awaken us to current housing dilemmas, local and global. The universal and timely themes of gentrification and migration are rendered in the choreography of ordinary people inhabiting a structure, leaving that structure through a variety of social, political, personal, and aesthetic forces, and replacing one another. HOME seeks to use the house of the theatre as a lens through which we might see the impact of these forces at work—the illusion of home; the transitory nature of dwelling; the constraints of time and money; the impossible structural demands of a house; the absurdity; and at times the impossibility of trying to make a house a home. In the face of entropy, we struggle to build infrastructure, family community, art. We fail, and we try again.
There will be a post-show talk with the artists after the 23 May, Friday performance.
