Experience
The game
Wednesday at 7.30 pm; Thursday to Sunday at 4 and 7.30 pm
Running time 110’
In The game the multi-award winning Swiss duo Trickster-p, forever open to innovative research and experimentation, simulates the rules of our society and its relationship with money. Catapulted onto a small island, the participants, organized in teams, will need to decide the principles upon which to divide a plot of land, with the aim of boosting their resources through targeted strategies. The players will be able to experience the dynamics of our contemporary world, the relationship between free will and social conditioning, developing possible collective approaches to produce change.
Trickster-p, born from the encounter of Cristina Galbiati and Ilija Luginbühl, is an artistic research project that moves in a territory of boundary and contamination between different languages. After an initial phase focused on the centrality and physicality of the performer, over the years Trickster-p has moved away from the concept of theater in the strict sense to investigate possible transversal expressive signs that are the result of the mixture of heterogeneous artistic tools. Their performances and installations have been represented in over thirty countries.
