Our lives are composed by a series of events, phenomenas and experiences that point to each other in a causal network. We try as best we can to navigate the signs that surrounds us. Both the signs we do not manage to decipher, and the ones we create, in an attempt to surrender power and responsibility to something outside of ourselves.

In So Far So Good we meet in a place both a theater and dungeon, an old greek arena and a dance club. Sound and vibrations encompass the space, filling in the blanks where words come to short and the audience is invited to take part in the odd and long lost ritual of confessing and cleansing your sins to the scapegoat. Our contemporary society offers us many ways to mute feelings of discomfort related to the status of the world, but nearly always as individuals. In So Far So Good we wish to enter the feeling of unease together, sit with it, possibly punch it out in the end.

SO FAR SO GOOD is one of CPH STAGE’s Selected Works and will play in English during the International Days of the festival.
