SHARED SPACE AND THINGS WE NEED
Each era has its own fateful question.
In our time this question arises from the climate crisis, mass extinction and the violence that characterizes our age.
Therefore we should expect from the performing arts new principles arising from this question. This work suggests sharing and hospitality as such.
The concept Open Score is a method and technique developed by director Sanna Kekäläinen, which opens up the withdrawn and enclosed form and meaning of a conventional performance. Open Score does not define the form of the work conclusively, but allows it to live and transform into different
situations, places and spaces and ways of thinking. This adaptation also strongly implies the content of the work; the aim is not to close the circle but to open it and thus create a wide existence, new forms and possibilities for the work.
In this work the shared space also extends to materials, their organocenic quality and taking care of them.
The ways of being and expression in the work ask what is sharing and what is hospitality and also what are sharing and hospitality in performing arts. Space and experience are shared in the same way as the world is shared and common.
