Five actors take part in the same performance separately at five different locations in Aarhus. A performance where apartments and the city are the stage.
ALL IS IMPOSSIBLE is a performance, a live film, a home-made music video, a hopeful attempt to stage some dreams and fantasies about all that is impossible. They are lonely, isolated young people who are reaching for someone else to love or a meaning to exist.
Five apartments in Aarhus have been transformed into scenographies. Here, the actors stage themselves and each other. What look like ordinary, recognizable homes transform into fantasies. The normal becomes phenomenal. They are pompous self-staged fantasies about how their lives could be. These are desperado parties. These are embarrassing confessions. It’s sex that was completely wrong perfect. These are disasters and moments when everything is floating. And even though there is a distance between them, they are puzzle pieces to each other’s stories.
Everything can go wrong, and every night becomes like a marathon of many different challenges that the six actors have to complete. It’s basically impossible, and it will definitely go wrong.
The performance was streamed live from 23 to 30 May 2020 on alterumuligt.com. But it was also possible to meet the actors during the performance somewhere in the city.
With ALL IS IMPOSSIBLE, you are invited into a “virtual” theatre, where the rules are different than in the physical theatre. You bring your own popcorn and can crackle loudly with the chocolate paper. You can drink beer in this theatre, and you can also talk loudly with those you are with. However, one rule also applies here: It is not permitted to take pictures, screenshots, video or audio recordings and the like while the performance is playing.
