HOOKED

Performance Social/Urban Movements Theatre & Performance

Join us for a poetic roller-coaster ride that oscillates between euphoria and abstinence, pain and pleasure, high kicks and deep hunger.
HOOKED is a physical and visual performance about the anatomy of addiction.
With the body as a battlefield, HOOKED sheds light on addiction as a phenomenon – whether it be in the form of gambling, apps, shopping, alcohol, porn, drugs or painkillers.

What is this hunger that drives us?
What are the interests behind that push us?
And once we’re HOOKED – what does it take to break free?

HOOKED is a scenic hybrid of dance, ritual, visual art and performance art. It is created by a distinct team of international artists, including Danish/Swedish director and performance artist Annika B. Lewis, Italian/German choreographer and performance artist Morgan Nardi, as well as Swedish visual artist Peter Johansson.

reviews

A small snapshot that, with its own bite, addresses the human urge to numb and follows fate on the roller coaster ride through the addiction landscape. Kulturnyt.net Lita Domino, March 15, 2022

The performance tells the story of a continuous movement from trance to stagnation, – from intoxication to pain. Thus, it becomes a fine representation of the narrow margin in which man can move when the next fix is omnipresent. Kulturnyt.net Lita Domino, March 15, 2022
