AUTOBUS RE//MIX - TEATR STREFA CISZY (Poland)

The “Strefa Ciszy” Theatre was established in 1993 in Poznań. The founder and leader of the group is Adam Ziajski. From the beginning, an interactive relationship between spectators and actors, as well as an element of carnival and playful fun have been very important in the groups actions. In many of their productions, humor and fun were transformed into an ironic tool exposing human behavior and rules of social life. In the season 2008/2009 the theatre returned to interventions in urban spaces, and its last two premieres were indoor performances: Smacznego! presented their own site and Autobus re//mix as a part of the project RE/MIX by Komuna Warszawa. In undertaking to participate in the cycle of RE / / MIX of Komuna Warszawa, it was obvious to us that we find the work of an artist, or a formation, which is particularly important to us. “Autobus”, a production of Akademia Ruchu is more than just a performance – it is an extraordinary, touching and border experience. This work is completed , and it leaves virtually no field for discussion. Bold and radical, puting the viewer in a difficult and uncomfortable situation. A provocative, synthetic “living image”, arousing extreme emotions. Unfortunately, we did not have the opportunity to watch this production. Thus, our ideas are based on our own intuitions, conversations, and description and a short footage . In result, the original has become for us an inspiring starting point for building an autonomous and personal expression of our times. “Autobus re/mix” cannot be defined in an unambiguous way to be defined as a theatre production or a performance, or as a performance art. Its nature is composed of an intimate and very limited presence of actors/ no-actors. The spectators’ reaction to the experience in no way can be predicted.
