A.P.E is proud to be production partner for The Humans, a theater play by Alexandre Singh
Rotterdamse Schouwburg, Rotterdam
Saturday 28 September, 13.30 and 20.15Sunday 29 September, 13.30
The Humans tells the story of two spirits named Tophole and Pantalingua, who would rather see the Earth not created. The work is modeled on the comic writings of Aristophanes and set during the dawn of time and space. In a battle against the egomaniacal Creator, Tophole and Pantalingua conspire their way to an accidental Paradise Lost, ultimately corrupting the eponymous humans—portrayed as a vast, songful, and statuesque Greek chorus—into the flawed mortals we are today.
Alexandre Singh was invited by Witte de With Center for Contemporary Art, to develop The Humans at Witte de With from April 2012 to January 2013, after which he continued to work on the play in Rotterdam. Singh shared and developed his research and production through public presentations of his work-in-progress centered around thematic monthly public events at Witte de With, titledCauseries. During these public conversations Singh looked at topics ranging from cosmology and cosmogony to satire, theatrical costumes, and scatology as well as key inspirational figures such as Aristophanes, Alexander Pope, P.G. Wodehouse, William Hogarth, John Ruskin, South Park andWoody Allen, resulting in this full-fledged theatrical account of the universe’s creation.
The Humans is commissioned by Witte de With Center for Contemporary Art and Performa 13. The Humans is co-produced by LLC Preromainbritain; Witte de With; Productiehuis Rotterdam; Rotterdamse Schouwburg and Performa 13. It is presented in partnership with festival De Keuze and the Brooklyn Academy of Music (BAM).Production partner: A.P.E (art projects era)
