Ape!

Um clip muito engraçado mesmo se não quiserem ler a descrição!!

A short clip from Gary Stevens' latest performance piece, Ape. Performed by Gary Stevens, Julian Maynard Smith (Station House Opera) and Amanda Hadingue (Stan’s Café). Three performers inextricably linked by one rule, to copy and ape each other’s behaviour. Starting with simple actions and movements and rapidly descending into a chaotic world of gestures, language and not quite enough props, each performer struggles to assert their own character and to take control. Playfully testing the limits of the rule through skilful and sophisticated performances, Ape creates a tangled mass of associations, moving from instantly recognisable social situations to moments of slapstick comedy. Actions and words soon spin out of control as the performers continue to copy the copy… Gary Stevens is an artist who creates performances and video installations, working with a wide range of performers. His solo & ensemble works have been presented internationally in gallery, theatre, festival and public spaces.




Got to go!! :-)
