A megalomaniac staging
STATEN / THE STATE is not traditional theatre. There are no actors, no set design, and no linear narrative. Instead, the audience is invited to experience it live on location at site-specific venues across Copenhagen. Each episode presents personal stories from the citizens of the state across social classes – including civil servants, job consultants, bank robbers, migrants, and activists – spanning from the deeply personal to the systemic.
Meet, for example, Ole, a conventional farmer, in Territory at Den Hirschsprung Collection, or listen to Rikke and Helene in Hænderne Fulde as they share their personal accounts of systemic failure and the fight for inclusion in daycare services for children with special needs. Or join Kevin for a drive through his childhood streets in Heat, as he recounts his many bank robberies.
STATEN paints a kaleidoscopic portrait of the state as both a community and a construct – an exploration of the structures and values that bind us together in a time of increasing polarization.
Inspired by streaming services, audiences can subscribe to STATEN for 129 DKK/month instead of purchasing individual episode tickets. A subscription offers the flexibility to choose freely between episodes, making it an innovative way to experience live performance. The episodes take place live on location and can be enjoyed individually or as part of a collective journey through the many facets of the state.
Please note that almost every episode is in Danish.
HOW IT WORKS:
- Subscribe on STATEN’s website.
- Book seats for the episodes you want to experience.
- Show up at the location and immerse yourself in STATEN.
STATEN is constantly evolving. New episodes and information are continuously added, so there is always something new to discover. Check STATEN’s website regularly for the latest updates and news.
ABOUT FIX+FOXY
fix+foxy has been producing theater for over a decade – in both classic theater formats, audio performances, and digital formats. Their work is driven by curiosity and a desire to produce complex narratives through playful, entertaining, and accessible formats, all while challenging prejudices, preconceived notions, and misunderstandings we have about each other and the world around us.
fix+foxy addresses the times we live in by involving the audience and telling stories about the people who shape our society. They invite people onto the stage who are rarely presented or represented in the performing arts because they believe they can make a difference when people meet face to face.
In 2022, fix+foxy’s artistic director and founder Tue Biering received the Crown Prince Couple’s Culture Award.
