Again Forever is a dance performance that approaches the slow – the smooch dance – as potentially subversive, the slow sister of the rave. Again Forever emphasises the radical way in which the slow dance deals with intimacy and time in an era dominated by productivity, speed and isolation. The slow dance is taken out of its traditional context and connected to today's queer nightlife. Slow-dancing becomes a collective practice and a form of resistance, a slow rave.

Over the past twelve years, Lisa Vereertbrugghen has explored the political and physical dimensions of (hardcore) techno music and dance. With Again Forever, she extends her research to a social dance at the other end of the speed spectrum.
