Common land

An interactive space by Trickster-p

Journey Through Time | Cosmos | Interactive Space

Trickster-p once again blurs the boundaries between theatre, installation and perception. The company from Novazzano in Ticino, led by Cristina Galbiati and Ilija Luginbühl, is now one of Switzerland’s best-known ensembles internationally. With ‘Common land’, they invite you on a journey through time and space, into the depths of your own perception.

It is best to have no expectations when entering this theatre installation – no story, no plot. Three screens, two performers and an immersive soundscape create an experiential space that appeals to all the senses. The traditional division between stage and auditorium is dissolved; here, everything becomes one. ‘Common land’ is about collective reflection and empathy. Time and again, we roam the same landscape, which shifts over the course of human history: a house, a meadow, a forest, and behind them the seemingly eternal silhouette of the mountains. The journey leads from the grand narrative to the realm of the smallest things, constantly shifting back and forth, right down to quantum time, when space and time merge into one another.

In this way, perception is shifted and points of reference are thrown into question. Our perspective broadens. Humanity is no longer at the centre; it becomes mycelium, part of a subcutaneous, thread-like network. ‘Common Land’ is an odyssey to our very selves, as individuals and as a collective.
