GOING NOWHERE

GOING NOWHERE

In the age of acceleration, nothing can be more exciting than walking slowly, and in a time of distraction, nothing is as luxurious as paying attention, and in a time of constant movement, nothing is as urgent as sitting still.

GOING NOWHERE is a new experimental and comic circus performance about the age of acceleration and the collapse of attention.

In GOING NOWHERE body percussion, object manipulation and acrobatic dance meet the absurd, the funny and the grotesque through an individual's struggle to regain calm, focus and depth in his life.

REVIEWS:

★★★★★
“"A constantly entertaining and thought-provoking small circus gem, stylistically reminiscent of Chaplin and Keaton. Going Nowhere problematises, using the strong power of comedy, our addiction to the mobile phone in a danceable interplay between the creativity of boredom and the alluring seduction of the algorithm ." – ISCENE

"It is incredibly skillfully made, to be able to create such a satirical performance without uttering a single word. Everything is conveyed through the body." — M. Svennevig

"One is immensely entertained because the performance is well put together. The sequence of episodes has a flow that brings calm and clarity amidst Villads Bugge Bang's comedic chaos of flailing limbs, uncontrollable noises, and bewildered facial expressions. His imaginative and inventive ability to utilize his undeniable acrobatic and mimetic skills is hilarious and deeply fascinating." — Teateravisen
