LIFE IS NOT BLACK AND WHITE

 

A visual performance in motion

 

Black and white. Light and darkness.

In a universe shaped by contrasts and precision, a story unfolds – through movement, music, and imagery.

 

Objects are used in new ways, transformed in interplay with movement and music.

Life is Not Black and White is a physical and sensory performance in which white objects and symbols appear against a pitch-black background, creating a visual world inspired by the poetry and clarity of silent film.

 

The performance plays with transformation and ambiguity: the elegant and the grotesque, the beautiful and the unsettling. With a scenic language that speaks to the eye before the ear, we dive into the darkness to uncover the nuances – and that which cannot be immediately explained.

 

An experience for the curious – both children and adults.

A performance about growing up, discovering the world, being seduced, and arriving in unexpected places.

 

We look forward to welcoming you into our distinctive universe!

Teater Asterions Hus and its artistic power couple, Tilde Knudsen and Peter Kirk, have built an impressive body of work. Their production Life Is Not Black and White fits seamlessly into their distinctive artistic style and aesthetic. It is raw poetry expressed through highly stylised stage imagery.
