IN THE HOUSE is a series of three live, online performances, taking place simultaneously in Stanford, Berlin, and Bucharest. Poetry IN THE HOUSE because each of the three events is hosted by a poet who, together with an actor, a violinist, a sound designer, a composer, and a visual artist will rhyme online from studios placed 10,000km apart. A radical improvisation.
The online medium has a compressed ear, a lot of eye, and a few buttons: Play, Pause, Stop, Skip, etc. Any child can handle it. An online performance is the mirror of a mirror, a self-referential infinity in which distance is only an effect, and the poet is technically IN THE HOUSE. Maybe the poetry is bigger even than the one writing it and the one reading it, but the question is: is this live?
IN THE HOUSE continues the syncretic exercise started in 2017 by Constantin Basica, Olga Berar, and Adrian Ciglenean through the interdisciplinary micro-festival se8tembr10—seeking the performative element in music, the musical element in poetry, and the poetic element in performance.
IN THE HOUSE will be broadcast on October 9, 10, and 11 during the Bucharest Fringe Festival organized by Apropo Theatre. Each event can be accessed in three ways:
- the breakfast tray (live streamed);
- the kitchen counter (live on Zoom);
- the dining table (streamed rerun).
