Benched

Uppercut Danseteater (DK)
Take your seat! Sit down! You are benched! Are you sitting in the right place?

BENCHED is a brutally honest bodily tale about life’s big and very small questions. About settling down. About daring to sit in opposition, about sitting cross legged, about being sat, put off or benched. About taking, creating, and giving space, and preferably remembering to do so before falling on your ass where the bench ends.
