Α devised performance by Sakari Laurila and Lia Haraki
We take our fictional characters for a walk on the wild side of karaoke. Will any fantasies survive?
A performance of karaoke scenes, where identity constructions, fantasies, expectations and a house guitarist, all try to survive until the end of the song. A colourful set of characters who all seem to have difficulties mastering the social symbolic matrix, slipping in the no-man’s land between direct emotional expression and the socially accepted forms of public behaviour.
