Forced Entertainment

Forced Entertainment’s new work, ›Signal to Noise**‹**, is both playful and unsettling, comical and deadly serious. Six performers navigate a world of constraints, traps, behavioural habits and repeating cycles – language and music in loops, physical action as a delirious mode of escape.

Celebrating 40 years of the company’s experiments and reinventions of theatre language, the show summons a dynamic situation that draws audiences into a compelling encounter with the artists. ›Signal to Noise**‹** is an invitation to reflect on our shared contemporary experience, developed through the group’s rigorous and intuitive collaborative process.

Do join us after the premiere on 21.03. to celebrate 40 brilliant years of Forced Entertainment!
