Waste Me (13+)

Welcome to the back of disposable society. Five performers crawl out of a huge pile of trash. They discard stuff, trash and each other. They become stuff; the stuff is their life. Factory movements and herd behavior alternate. Is it Utopia or have they entered hell? They are waiting for something, a redemption, a new world. Can they free themselves from this self-made prison?

Waste Me is a dance performance by choreographer and playwright Cecilia Moisio, and a firm commentary on consumer society getting out of control. A firm plea for consumerism. A critical look at how consumerism has changed our psyché and behavior and what this means for our self-esteem and the esteem of others around us.

Moisio confronts you with harsh reality, but also takes you to the world where people are more valuable than things, where happiness is more important than possessions. To the real Utopia... The set image is the exact amount of waste a European throws away in a year.
