KOSTO I-IX
2017
is a recitative fantasy directed by choreographer Elina Pirinen. It sings forth visions of revenge in linguistically, visually and corporeally subtle and direct ways. The singing on stage is surrounded by nine bodies incorporating rest and fetivo. The tableau vivant, in turn illuminated and extinguished, brings forth the beautiful inner tumult of humanity.
