Malmö
Torque Show
Presented by Vitalstatistix Theatre Company
in association with Adelaide Festival

“We turn to wallpaper, benches, paintings and streets to staunch the disappearance of our true selves.”
     Alain de Botton, The Architecture of Happiness 


Malmö is a story of a couple in that quintessentially Australian condition: the home renovation. We are invited into their world; we laugh and join their conceit. But things are not as they first seem. This couple is, perhaps, hell-bent towards aspirational ruin.

Segueing between dance, text and striking visual imagery, Malmö challenges the performer-audience contract in a surprising physical and emotional journey described as Dogville meets The Block.

Unsettling, absurdly funny and profound, Malmö is a cliché-bending exploration of the commercialisation of modern nesting.
