Theater Thikwa and the performance collective Turbo Pascal explore fantasies of escape and staying in times of global crisis. Simply leaving, emigrating, fleeing—to a place untouched by climate change, unaffected by a nuclear attack, and where human dignity remains inviolable.
Does such a place exist? And if so, who can go there? Performers and audience members imagine their own emigration stories, which may succeed or fail, and compare their legal, financial, and physical possibilities.
Between reality TV, green screen journeys, and real barriers, an interactive performance unfolds about leaving—and about the question of what staying in solidarity can look like.
