Burnt takes a closer look at burnout syndrome and the dynamic relationship between togetherness and exhaustion. The performance is not therapy but a suggestion for recovering from a complex problem such as burnout.

Burnt [The Eternal Long Now] questions a physical state that copes with constant change, a push-pull situation reminiscent of a floating ship that is never stable or calm, but is always in motion and overloaded by ever higher waves.

There was once a Hungarian filmmaker who said that there is no film about love nor about hate. Only about someone who feels love or hate for another person. That helps me to let go of that. Crucial for us is the desire to work with different layers. One is working with the tired body, so we deconstruct burnout to understand and translate segments.
Zoltán Vakulya

This new show is in the same vein of previous creations: Together Alone (2016) was an intense duet in which they navigated between partnership and empathy through the Siamese phenomenon. In kNOwn FACE (2019), they embody influencers in our selfie culture.

Their work has been awarded and nominated for the Taishin Art Prize for Best Creation 2016, 2019, 2021 (Taiwan), Total Theatre Award 2017 (UK), Asian Art Awards 2017 (UK), TECO Award for Dance Arts 2020 (Taiwan) and Jeon Mak Arts Award 2017 (South Korea).
