Ghost Box (12+)

Ghost Box (12+)

Suppose you could change everything about yourself, be perfect, or even be immortal. Would you do it? Even if you had to give up everything that makes you human?

‘Ghost Box’ is a modular walkthrough performance: from Joe’s perspective you move through a post-apocalyptic world, in which being human is questioned. Instead of being born naturally, Joe was designed by a futuristic system that creates the perfect neo-human: eternally young, infinitely modified, and with artificially generated feelings, such as happiness, failure, and freedom.

‘Ghost Box’ is a mix of foam rubber sculptures, hip-hop dance and technology. Duda Paiva Company’s unique vocabulary creates visual poetry. Through a choreographic dialogue between man and thing, ‘Ghost Box’ flirts with the futuristic visions of the cyberpunk genre.
