BAND is a performance that investigates the experience of a psychedelic concert. Yet, there are no musicians, no instruments and no music to be heard. Kaleidoscopic shadows, drone-like movement, and a feeling of drifting away create the sound. 

”(…) it is as if the bodies become abstracted. The four performers are reminiscent of nature moving in the wind. From plastic cans rolling in the breeze, to windmills in [a] storm. The light design develops from subtle pulsing, to becoming its own flickering choreography of colours projected onto the four bodies lying crooked on the stage floor. (…) BAND can be seen as a variation on John Cage’s ”4’33”, where the sound of the audience is highly present”.
