Details

Three bodies on stage, confronting each other's tongue; mother tongue. They are in a state of constant translation; until words are not enough, until movement, music, memories are not enough. Wall of Babel is a multilingual piece interrogating concepts of identity, language, and translation. The fragmented narrative of the performance, taking the structure of the human cycle, revolves around the character's growth and their attempts at communication. The audience does not always understand what the three bodies say, but it is present throughout.
