About

Dance theatre: Wilde draws from the universe of Oscar Wilde, and his play Lady Windermere’s Fan – a satire on Victorian moralism. It is an attempt to appropriate a radio version of the play, produced by BBC Radio 7 – an object from the past, itself an appropriation of a play from its past. The performers – all dressed as Lady Windermere – move around illustrating the recording, lip-sync, act over the recording, come together to play some characters, sing in an operetta register, and fulfill choreographies. The formal aspects acquire a progressive freedom as the libertarian narrative unfolds. Portuguese theatrical troupe Mala Voadora and Portuguese choreographer Miguel Pereira will present the Wilde Asian premiere.
