Self-Evident: Intimacy and Engagement -- The Human Laboratory: Parable of a Recent Past -- Nature, Theatre&

The last human venue marks the location and moment of human beings' awareness of their own eventual extinction. Taking this sober end as anaffirmative starting point Theatre, Intimacy & Engagement explores ways in which performance operates as an exciter of sentience, kick-starting our sense of being alive, acting as a pleasurable lengthening deviceto extend our inevitable fate. Humans in this venue distinguish themselves from other animals through their experiencing of an extended childhood, in their ability to sustain a controlled, unbroken outward breathand by their unique capacity to aesthetically disappoint. Theatre companies in this venue, Forced Entertainment, Societas Raffaello Sanzio and Goat Island generate images of epochal endings, profane resistance tosacred separation and the ecological potential of repair. Those who are stage-struck in this venue think through theatre ideas about matters of human animal concern: the politics of nature, the anthropological machine,the distribution of the sensible and the inoperative community.
