New Ko rea n th eatre
Do you want to get an impression of what it feels like when a new generation discovers that the world may be different - and a better and funnier place? Then you might go to Seoul in Korea where minds get blown and where some people’s ingenuity knows no bounds. Or you could just visit Aarhus Festival and meet the Tacit Group ensemble and Geumhyung Jeong who are splendid representatives of the new times.

By tacit agreement, the six Korean artists on stage make a point of keeping silent. But then they can do things with their computers that would never be possible with words. With their laptops, they combine improvisation, digital art and audience participation in a humoristic and extroverted way.
Geumhyung Jeong has her origin in the Seoul’s vibrant performance scene and has won international acclaim for innovative combinations of dance, puppetry and video documentaries. In Aarhus she will be presenting 2 performances: ‘Oil Pressure Vibrator’ and ‘Video Camera’, which both explore female sexuality and in which the man is replaced by the machines surrounding her.
The Gala show is opened by His Royal Highness Crown Prince Frederik accompained by Her Royal Highness Crown Princess Mary.
