The Black-E: Liverpool Biennial 2016: Michael Portnoy: Relational Stalinism: The Musical
Date: 9.7.16
Time: 18:00 - 19:30
Location: The Black-E, 1 Great George Street, Liverpool, L1 5EW
Part of the Chinatown episode, Relational Stalinism: the Musical is an assemblage that uses many different registers of performance simultaneously. It mixes taiko micro-dance, exhausting feats of reading, experimental physical comedy, melodramatic operatic interlude, call-centre language-torture games, and satire of the Immaterial Turn.
Originally commissioned by Witte de With Center for Contemporary Art, Rotterdam, together with A.P.E. (Art Projects Era).
