Torture Me

[Zürich. Switzerland]

Developed in collaboration with the composer David Bangerter,  Torture me explores five stages of grief for his Master Project in contemporary composition at the Zürich University of the Arts.

Based on Bangerter’s idea to explore this concept, with intriguing inflatable costumes imagined by the scenographer Tim Buktu and proposing the Japaneese bondage technique of Shibari, “Torture Me” ends up to be rather uncomfortable and yet thought provoking performance.

Choreography by Ivana Balbanova

Performed alongside Lucy Woodhouse, Sheang-li Pung, and Manning Dong
