lonely lonely

In lonely lonely, Sööt/Zeyringer investigate the tension between desired and undesired loneliness, the need for human warmth and the simultaneous need for privacy. Using dry humour, subtle irony and cardboard boxes, the two performers create a rhythmic-choreographic dialogue on being lonesome and being together, while in the midst of minimalist and accurate execution, moments of surprise and poetry flare up.

lonely lonely was awarded the Performing Arts Award by the Federal Chancellery of Austria (2015) and the Young Stoff award at Stockholm Fringe Festival (2016)
