“Living Minus Dead” is a hybrid 360° experience at the intersection of music, theater and film. Four performers – complemented by three singers around the composer Mathias Monrad Møller – deal with their own mortality and collective mourning practices. The basis for this is the online project “Archive of the Living Dead”, which has received much media attention and which documents voices of Corona risk groups in the form of digital legacies and preserves them for a coming society.

The production “Living Minus Dead” is a formal aesthetic and content response to the challenges of the Corona pandemic. Using 360° technology, it simultaneously occupies analog as well as digital (theater) space, seeking a communal experience in pandemic times and beyond.

For this purpose, each analog performance comes to digital resurrection after three days. Both experiences are unique and yet interconnected: they each offer their own unique perspectives on what is happening on stage and at the same time take a look at each other.

theatrical subversion

We find and develop our own material. We are authors, producers, performers, dramaturges and directors. Our works are documentary and fictional, theatrical and performative, analog and multimedia. We are interested in the in-between. We develop formats for stages and public spaces. We work interdisciplinary. We do not address an audience. The basis of our productions is research. Research takes time. We look for what’s behind, underneath, above. That means we are interested in topics, voices and perspectives that are marginal or absent from public perception. We search for general validity in the singular and for the preconditions of the present. In this sense, we understand our work as political.
