Bar Ansans (2020)
Devisor and performer
The restaurant is not closing and tonight is most certainly not it’s last day open. To celebrate the never-ending future of the bar, all drinks are on Sad Hour from 17 o’clock. Would you like to try our Denial Harvest Salad? What about Slow Anger Stuffing? We bet you’d love our Whole Depressed Cauliflower. If you’re in the mood you could even end the meal with a Freshly Baked Acceptance Pie. Join us as we do not say goodbye to our favourite bar, since it will be open forever. But beware, if the phone rings, DO NOT ANSWER IT!
Bar Ansans (Bar Damnit) is a 30 minute site specific piece conceived in a period of three weeks. It was created and crafted with devising methods using the space itself as the main inspiration.
A video of the performance is available upon request via magnus19@lhi.is.
