Out

The pride between viewer and performer

Out is a game with the anticipations of the performer and the expectations of the audience. The performance tests how the two play their roles in a situation where it is no longer clear what to expect. Ten performers get down on their knees and begin to play a dog’s game of “throw and fetch” with the audience. The game lasts as long as the audience is willing to play.

“Thank you for every minute we spent together. Thank you for your questioning looks. You are still waiting to see what is going to happen, although it is quite obvious what is happening. Too much is always too little for you. Thank you for being so demanding. I expected and anticipated it. Thank you for being so predictable. Thank you for coming and thank you for going. That is all. The end. You can go now. Thank you.” Gregor Zorc
