Mermaid & Seafruit (AT/PL)

Screens Are My New Clothes. Extended Album Release Show

The piece demonstrates what Covid-19 might have turned many of us into: lockdown-isolated ‘zoombies’ in screen clothes. The digitalisation of communication is the subject of a brand new album by musical duo Mermaid & Seafruit (Magdalena Chowaniec & Markus Steinkellner). What are the effects of screen barriers and virtualised bodies? This is the question posed by Viennese choreographer, activist and singer Magdalena Chowaniec together with a group of performers in this choreographic concert that can now finally take place live on stage. Song by song, scene by scene, expressively and vociferously, the score with being locked away is settled.
