The Laughing Game
The Laughing Game is a dance solo that explores laughter as an act of human belonging and empathy, as well as the body’s answer to emotional overload. The performance oscillates between dance, installation and concert as the work equally involves the body and the voice to unfold laughter as social communication, a bodily state, a stirring sound and as an explosive way of losing control. The performer takes the audience on a reflective and liberating journey through the captivating powers of laughter.
