TWINS - how do I know I am me...

Theater - Dance - Music - Installation
by Angie Hiesl and Roland Kaiser

… is a performance that addresses the fascinating and mysterious phenomenon of twin appearances. Being an identical twin - who's who? - a baffling interplay of optical illusions and mirror images between the everyday and the absurd.
The selected method of staging the production vacillates between art exhibition and performance. Thus the images inspired by the performers’ personal stories challenge the assumption of individual uniqueness.
