The Old Testament according to Loose Collective

"The Old Testament according to Loose Collective" by LOOSE COLLECTIVE will be presented within the frame of FEEDBACK festival in TQW in Vienna. The performance will take place on 27.04 at 20:30

"for they have even taken of the accursed thing, and have also stolen, and dissembled also, and they have put it even among their own stuff." Joshua 7:11

The Loose Collective has recently attracted attention as a result of the unconventionality and freshness of their productions and their enthusiastic performance-style. In their latest work, the Austria-based international group of dancers, choreographers and musicians dedicate themselves to the texts of the Old Testament.

Using contemporary performance methods – from cut-up techniques and chorus scenes to beatboxing and diaspora post punk – they propose a physical and musical montage of elements of this enormous body of text, which today is still an expression of creativity and utopia, of human ambition and frustration.
