Waste Me

We are a throwaway society. Order it today, have it delivered tomorrow – and whatever we don’t like immediately ends up in the bin. Everything is available constantly and what’s new ages fast. What we own defines us. The new Nike trainers? Give them here, I need them too! There is no better feeling than ripping the packaging off your latest order. In Waste Me five performers live in a rubbish heap of possessions. They have adapted to this environment and transformed themselves into objects. Can we free ourselves from this over-consumption? And what will be left of us and our relationships with our fellow human beings? In this production for teenagers, adults alike and families, Cecilia Moisio uses dance, theatre and live music to create a world of trash art, in which objects and people have become interchangeable, and consumerism has become a prison we have made for ourselves.
