SADBOI (CYPRUS)
RESCHEDULED
Presented in partnership with The Performance Arcade
Sadboi likes his suffering raw. He is gay, horny, heartbroken and extremely peaceful. He instagrams, therefore he exists.
Panos Malactos works with Elias Adam (Cyprus & Greece) and researches the concept of radical stage vulnerability.
SADBOI is an auto fictional portrait of a sadboi dancer. The show attempts an ambiguous and complex narration, exploring sex, love and sadness in a fully technological and sexualised post-modern age. Sadboi is an immersive experience where intense physicality meets the virtual realm of social media, memes, dating apps and the internet at large.
If lovesongs are dumb, wait till you hear this one. How many fire emojis will this get? The admins of this show are searching for validation.
Date: Saturday 18 Feb
