Event Description

Loitering is as political as a nap is revolutionary. Through pause and presence, we reclaim and reinvent. But the question is who gets to loiter? Just like the Baader-Meinhof Phenomenon where something you recently learned about suddenly seems to appear everywhere, the answer becomes inevitable once you know it. Through this non-linear, multi-disciplinary, experimental, four-act show, an investigation into who gets to loiter – to exist and to occupy space without the context of purpose – we discover the socio-economic structures that are created by control over, and through the absence of, women. This one-woman show will journey through the riotous act of solo traveling, introduce us to the gaze of the streets, and forefront the liberating act of loafing. Live. Love. Loaf. insists upon acknowledging the gaping absence of pedestrian women, loafing women, alone women, unchaperoned women, flaneuring women. Theatrical poetry show by Nupur Saraswat. The mediums of the show include the fluidity of spoken word, movement guided by the Alexander Technique, a soundscape created by Djembe, a screening of a short film documented over the last 4 years, and a paint-medium live installation.
