Meg, meg og meg

In the performance Meg, Meg and Meg, we meet four different characters who are actually one and the same person. The four personality traits meet, and the characters challenge each other to try to understand themselves better. The form is playful and crosses genres, and the audience gets to experience dance, text and song in creative juxtapositions. 

The characters in the performance are influenced by performance culture and try to be an elevated version of themselves, symbolized by an outrageous costume. The stage design consists of shiny black tape from over 900 VHS cassettes hanging from racks like a huge black waterfall of memories. All sound and lighting is controlled from the stage by the performers and is actively used as a tool in the relationships between the characters.

The form is playful and there is dancing, talking and singing, with associations from entertainment culture and narrow performing arts emerging around each other. There is a lot of humor in the performance, the audience should feel cared for, and we also experiment with how music can be used to create identity and evoke emotions. We use well-known songs, Silvola's newly composed music and music suggestions from the audience. 

A major driving force in the project is that the performance Meg, Meg og Meg will help to give young people an inclusive, positive and inspiring experience of experimental and exploratory performing arts. By playing with form and genres, the group wants to create curiosity about what performing arts can be and motivate young people to create themselves. Th´Line wants the young people to be able to recognize themselves in the images and characters they create and want to put into words what they have experienced.
