… excess, unnaturalness, pathos, immoderation, bombast, mannerism, ridiculousness, puffiness, exaltation, pose, wedge-headedness, pretentiousness, pomposity – EXAGGERATION
There are definitions of exaggeration. But does it have its limits? When is breaking out of the comfort zone a value, and when is it on the border of being ridiculous? How can you define the state just before? How to recognize it? Who or what decides when it is enough?
Is it possible to overdo something that is already overdone? Living in a time of consumption and information excess, where stimulation is an everyday reality, which also applies to dance and theatre performances, the creators take a closer look at exaggeration, treating it as a starting point for taking up any activity during the performance. Exaggeration is our quo state. Let's (not) go crazy. Yellow and plastic dominate the stage, and the set design for the performance is composed each time by Agata Starmach.
Monika Szpunar – choreographer and dancer
