ONE WOMAN CIRCUS
By Ragnhild May (DK)
The award-winning Danish artist Ragnhild May visits Sort/Hvid with her latest work – a one-woman circus. Her old dream of being a complete circus now comes true. She has packed a suitcase filled with props and gives it a go as both a lion and a unicycle artist.

HIJACKED SONGS
By Aaron Williamson (UK)
The British, award-winning artist Aaron Williamson improvises melodies of songs, that everyone knows, except from himself, because he has been deaf since 1990. His Hijacked Songs is a karaoke-performance with him singing songs requested by the audience. If he can remember the tune, he rejects the request. If, on the other hand, the whole audience, except for him, knows the song, he will improvise a suitable melody and hijack it in his unforgettable interpretation.
Friday 13 October 20H00 and 21H30 at Sort/Hvid
FooDJ
By Sebastian Lopez Restrepo (CO)
Colombian Sebastian Lopez Restrepo is a true potato DJ. Come taste his hot and musical potatoes. When dipped in the traditional tomato sauces of his home country, soundwaves are sent through the sauce to electrodes in the sauce trays. Sebastian live-mixes the sound into an electronic music piece mixed with tales of potato traditions in Columbia.
Friday 13 October 20H30 og 22H00
