BACK TO BACK THEATRE: small metal objects [majhni kovinski predmeti] OPOZORILO: Predstava, v kateri se sliši precej preklinjanja in besed, povezanih s spolnostjo, je primerna samo za zrele in odgovorne osebe, stare 13 let in več. Iskrivi gledališki biser, small metal objects, si jemlje za oder kar Prešerca, vedno polnega pešcev. Gledalci prek naglavnih slušalk poslušajo napeto osebno dramo, ki se odvija nekje v gneči. Gay in Steve po navadi ne izstopata iz povprečja. Zdaj pa v eni noči nehote odigrata osrednjo vlogo v življenju dveh stremuških podjetnikov, s katerima imata dogovorjen posel. Z razvojem dogodkov postajata vse bolj pristna, nam pa predstava zvito in živo prikaže drobne vsakdanjosti, ki jih večinoma jemljemo za samoumevne. BACK TO BACK ustvarja nove oblike sodobnega gledališča, kot si ga zamišlja skupina igralcev invalidov, ter poudarja družbene in politične vsebine, ki zadevajo vsakogar. Upira se konvencionalnosti, preizkuša logiko in prevprašuje imperativ normalnosti. “majhni kovinski predmeti obrnejo pojem vsakdanjika od znotraj navzven. Gre za čisto, iskreno, kompleksno in dih jemljočo predstavo, za edinstven razmislek o vrednosti človeka.” Sydney Morning Herald “Mojstri provokacije, igralci Back to Backa, poskrbijo za izjemno preobrazbo normalnega občinstva v ljudi, ki vidimo lepoto tam, kjer je skrita.” The Age še več v medijski sobi! CAUTION: Coarse language and sexual references. Suitable for a mature 13 year-old and up. An ingenious theatrical gem, small metal objects, unfolds amidst the high volume pedestrian traffic at Prešernov trg. With individual sets of headphones, the audience is wired in to an intensely personal drama being played out somewhere in the crowd. Gary and Steve are the kind of men who normally escape notice. But here they play an inadvertent pivotal role in the night of two ambitious executives they’ve arranged to meet for a transaction. As the intimacy of their situation develops, small metal objects emerge as a sly and luminous depiction of everyday issues most take for granted. BACK TO BACK THEATRE creates new forms of contemporary theatre imagined from the minds of a unique ensemble of actors with disabilities, giving voice to social and political issues that speak to all people. The company’s work defies convention, challenges logic and questions the imperative to be normal. “small metal objects turns the notion of theatre and the everyday inside out. It is a pure, open-hearted, complex and breathtaking production and a unique meditation on human worth.” Sydney Morning Herald “Master provocateurs, Back to Back does a rigorously mighty job on nudging and subverting straight audiences into seeing beauty where it is hidden” The Age zamisel devisors: Bruce Gladwin, Simon Laherty, Sonia Teuben, Genevieve Morris, Jim Russell; režija director: Bruce Gladwin; oblikovanje zvoka, glasba sound design, composition: Hugh Covill; fotografija photography: Jeff Busby Predstavo majhni kovinski predmeti so podprli Arts Victoria in avstralska vlada prek Australia Councila, Victoria Commissions s podporo vlade države Victorije prek Community Support Funda. small metal objects has been presented with support from Arts Victoria and assisted by the Australian Government through the Australia Council, its arts funding advisory body and initiated through the Victoria commissions, supported by the Victorian Government, through the Community Support Fund.
