KLUB KREATUR: MR. ROBBIES BØRNETIME
TicketsSteen Jørgensen, the lead singer of the acclaimed rock band Sort Sol [Black Sun] goes on stage as a renounced clown. He is known from a popular TV show called MR. ROBBIES BØRNETIME [Mr. Robbies Childrens Show], but an alcohol and heroin addiction has earned him a dismissal. Now he’s the host of an obscure night radio show where abused children can call him for help. Occasionally he goes out into the dark dressed in his clown costume to avenge the children calling him.
During two weeks of residency at Sort/Hvid, playwright Jokum Rohde, scenographer Ditte Tygesen, singer Steen Jørgensen, sound designer Laurits Jongejan and musician Marie Højlund experiment with music, sound and image installations. On November 14 they’ll open their artistic laboratory as part of KLUB KREATUR with a sneak peek into their experiments for the future performance MR. ROBBIES BØRNETIME.
The team will be exploring trauma theater by fusing audio with saturated image narratives. Children’s voices are heard from the radio, Mr. Robbie dresses up like a clown, a scream loops, Steens Jørgensen’s raw rock voice retells the story of the life of a clown, suddenly Mr. Robbie appears with blood on his clothes, a victim’s revenge confession is heard from the speaker, and then out of nowhere we are back in the good old days of MR. ROBBIES BØRNETIME. Playback, real time, sound and image are mixed in a visual musical piece which will only be for the faint hearted.
KLUB KREATUR
Experience MR. ROBBIES BØRNETIME as part of Sort/Hvid’s new event KLUB KREATUR where both the bar and the art is open.
Come and have a drink with us and look behind the musical art that we create here in the old slaughterhouse. At KLUB KREATUR working artists open their laboratories and show the raw, crisp art while it is being created. It is a one-off performative experiment that only happens that one evening.
