TRUE RANDOM
Premiere 24.05 2025

Dates:
Dansehallerne, Copenhagen, May 24th-28th 2025 


Time is out of joint. It resides in the body. True Random attempts to grasp the feeling of balancing on the edge of the abyss. Losing orientation. Losing the organization of the world.

There is so much that matters in a life that is ruled by chance. It can be felt when the world is undergoing rapid transformation, and it serves as a reminder of how vulnerable we are, and how quickly everything can change. True Random is a performance where community and the poetic force of moving together are central, and where the meaningfulness of the randomness is explored.

True Random is the third piece in a series of performances exploring our personal, inner time in different phases of life. The experience of the passage of time is embodied through different formats, spaces, and temporalities. The previous works in the series are The Labyrinth (2022) and Maze (2023). By following the architecture of the labyrinth, the logic of the maze, moving towards the concept of “True Random”, these choreographies invite the audience to reflect on life and existence in relation to the most fundamental movement: the passing of time.
