Internationally renowned Danish performance artist Annika B. Lewis, brings her one-woman show, Let's Get Personal, to Theatre Project, 45 West Preston Street, Baltimore, for three performances February 19 - 21.
The evening will also feature a performance of F.E.A.R., a work-in-progress and an international collaboration between Annika B. Lewis and Theatre Project Resident Artist Vincent E. Thomas.
Let's Get Personal is a satire performance lecture about personal optimizing, radical positioning and collective bedazzlements. It comments on the mediated "performance" society of today, the politicians' use of newspeak and the role of art in the wake of the so called experience economy.
Let's Get Personal is an absurd report from the happiest country in the world, with a personal commentary ranging somewhere between blind angles and clear views - in a fusion of physical gospel and oral pas de deux.
In Let's Get Personal, Annika B. Lewis continues her long-term project of breaking the boundaries of what dance and theatre can be, at the same time examining modern man in a challenging and entertaining way.
F.E.A.R. explores the political, social, cultural, economic, emotional, physical, medical, healing and even comical aspects of fear, and the similarities and differences of the embedded nature of fear in Denmark and the United States.
Annika B. Lewis was born in San Francisco, raised in Sweden and is now living in Denmark. She has been working professionally in the field of performing arts for over 25 years and is the founder and artistic leader of the artist driven Kassandra Production. She performs internationally, and in her work challenges conventional norms of identity, gender, positions, perception, values, preconceptions and conventions. Using theatre, dance, multimedia and performance art she strives to visualize these invisible mechanisms that play such critical roles in our lives and societies.
Annika's work also explores the use of unconventional performance spaces and locations. In addition to traditional theatre venues she has staged performances in private apartments, caravans, fairs, abandoned factories, in the media and on the Internet.
