NUMBNESS: CHAPTER 2
Deadpan dada meets Pina Bausch in this physically rigorous, movement-driven, self-imploding melodrama.
After a natural catastrophe blocks out the sun, Fred & Ginger spin, carry, and claw their way through the isolation of a forgotten government lab (or is it a 50's suburban kitchen?), while Yovo catalogs humanity in search of the post-post-post. This is sexy, visceral, bonkers buffoonery reimagined as The New Absurd.
“If there’s a distinct prankishness to these actors’ interactions with the audience, there’s also a consistent spirit of solicitousness and generosity, not least in the shots of rum they distribute.”
- ROLLO ROMIG, THE NEW YORKER
