Münchener Biennale: Turn Turtle Turn
In the organizer's words:
"How did it come to this?" In the geological age of the Anthropocene and its man-made crises, Oblivia poses this question as the starting point for their new piece, which will be premiered in the HP8 City Library as part of the Munich Biennale 2024. Once again, the Finnish export hits of the new music theater scene approach the great themes of humanity in their work, which they approach with subtle wit in text fragments, movement and new music. Together with three local singers and the twelve-piece ensemble ö! under the direction of Francesc Prat, the four performers from Oblivia create a grandiose tableau in "Turn Turtle Turn": they meander playfully and pointedly between the dinosaur age and adventure stories, between the ice age and parallel worlds, prehistoric geography and our hunt for fossil fuels. Sometimes close, sometimes seemingly completely adrift, "Turn Turtle Turn" is a search for clues about the status quo of humanity between ongoing (self-)destruction and persistent hope.
hope.
