An installation performance of make-believe
If I speak the truth in an obviously disguised field, will you believe me?
If I fake it in a ‘fake it till you make it’ space, will you also believe me?
You believe/ you don’t believe/ you sort of believe, and you doubt/ you beg yourself to believe/ you refuse to believe/ you cheat yourself into believing it… Can you really fake it till you make it?
When performers present their own self in a performance, are they role-playing?
When a performer perfects an audience-preset/ expected ‘self’, can you distinguish the genuine from the acted?
It is said that every illusion on the stage is a copy of reality. Are you sure that the so-called authenticity of existence exists?
Welcome to the creators’ labyrinth of truth and illusion! Light dims, curtain rises, audience and creators entered into an indescribable and unspecified contract to construct an impossible reality together.
As we depart from the theatre, will the reality become more concrete? Does ‘truth’ only exist as a belief?
Multi-art-discipline mastermind Orlean Lai makes her directorial debut and collaborates with media/ visual artists Ng Tsz-kwan and Tung Wing-hong, composer/ sound artist Lam Lai, lighting designer Lau Ming-hang and costume designer Trista Ma. With stories and paintings created by visual artist Ho Sin-tung, the team appropriates kaleidoscopic and boundless theatre elements, and altogether constructs an inconceivable, magical landscape. Multi-talented and highly unique performers KT Yau Ka-hei, Anson Chan, Pearlmi Tam, Tung Chung-can and Pollux Kwok perform themselves with every means of solution, unleashing spectacle and imagination from viewing and performing!
