Ophelia after Hamlet

Beschreibung

Ophelia after Hamlet a performance based on William Shakespeare's piece and a research into Femicide. Ophelia after Hamlet is a diatribe, in which an "under water Ophelia" lectures a wilderness, pathetic, almost standing on the sidelines, Hamlet who only seeks to mitigate his actions and needs, with immediate pleasure, takes distance from worlds pain and reality. Surrounded by his horror phantasms, he seems like a helpless spectator in front of the tube, zapping through the channels. In Ophelia after Hamlet, the secondary characters are the ones who spin the story. Those who do not determine the courses of action, but very well participate in the inevitable chain of violence. We developed a circular space composed of four sides, each of them two metres long and one meter wide, around a central base of one metre by one metre. The spectators are positioned on the four sides of the resulting circle, allowing the view and perspective to differ from one spectator to another. Language: Aims to combine the sound and video installation with movement and free adaptation and use of the text.
