The Vampire Revolution

We don’t believe that climate change, overpopulation and consumerism can continue
We can´t continue screaming MORE, LOUDER, FASTER, GROWTH, GROWTH, GROWTH
We believe that we must create a radical change. An awakening
We believe in a fundamental change in system. That revolt is necessary

THE VAMPIRE REVOLUTION is a revolution, a revolt where violence becomes part of the solution and democratic rules are set out of order. Created by Sort/Hvid and Corpus and based on a story of rebellious youth and corny vampires, THE VAMPIRE REVOLUTION is an examination of how revolution is possible at all and if the uprising has just become a cliché that has lost its power. Sucked dry and spit out as empty mainstream.

THE VAMPIRE REVOLTION is a co-production between Aarhus Teater, Sort/Hvid and The Royal Ballet’s new dance-company Corpus led by Tim Matiakis. Previous performances by director Christian Lollike and choreographer Tim Matiakis are the renowned I FØLING about Danish Afghanistan-veterans and UROPA about fugitives and the asylum crisis.

The performance will be in English.
