Het undergroundgezelschap Radiohole uit Brooklyn is voor het eerst in
Nederland. De groep maakt aanstekelijke en nogal barokke
theaterstukken in een stijl die sterk afwijkt van het Nederlandse
theater. Het is vrij, subversief en compromisloos in het vormgeven van
de eigen fantasie. Punktheater in de beste zin van het woord. In
'Anger/Nation' richt Radiohole de pijlen op 'de amerikaanse psyche',
mede geïnspireerd door het werk van filmer Kenneth Anger.

Radiohole
Anger/Nation
Co-commissioned by the Kitchen, the
Donaufestival, and the Noorderzon
Festival, ANGER/NATION is created by Radiohole and performed in the
tradional style by company members Eric Dyer, Scott Halvorsen Gillette,
and Maggie Hoffman with special guest star Iver Findlay. Video design
by Iver Findlay, So Yong Kim and Radiohole.
'Anger/Nation' explores
the contradictory puritanical and hedonistic underpinnings of the
American psyche by colliding the psychedelic aesthetic of occult
filmmaker Kenneth Anger with the histrionic escapades of the
self-proclaimed "America's Loving Home Defender," Carrie A. Nation, a
remarkable 19th century, hatchet-wielding temperance crusader. Using
miniature floating video monitors, post-it notes, licorice, and a
healthy dose of fairy dust, Radiohole conjures a "pleasuredome"
populated by an unpredictable mélange of questionable
characters ranging from random Roman centurions to male cherubs that
force Carrie A. Nation to wield her hatchet against sin and degradation
-- only to then find herself in the grips of a voluptuous spiritual
transformation of her own.
