  • duration: 35 min

20 + 20 is an online theatrical experiment with a scenic dramaturgy, thought out directly for the platform, visualizing the 9 interpreters in conference. With isolation being the dotonating concept and theme of the project, we’ve worked driven by various questions: what are the emotional transits we endured over time while stuck at home? How does this situation affect the scenic creators? We decided to explore the possibilities and break the distance via a virtual scene which ends with a look of hope from the approach of various writers, journalists, and poets, with the evolution or mutability of contemporary art. This piece is filled with signs, metaphors and sense, while permanently searching for other ways to link us. We used the devices as resonance boxes to work the words , looks and gestures on the internet in real time, where the network serves as a shared spaces between the spectator and actor.
