  • Theatre is full of failure and risk. The digital medium, too, is fragile. Caridad Svich is interested in how the digital is dependent on stability and how this echoes the fact that theatre deals with instability on a granular level. The glitches in this video are therefore intentional.

    In theatre there is always failure. It is the eternal rope upon which the high-wire act of making is built. At every moment something may break, not connect, fall apart, lose its way. The beauty of theatre is that it is always at risk, on the edge, vulnerable to itself and others, and enthralled by the mechanism of its own co-creation with an audience.
