Nobody Whistles Anymore
“Nobody Whistles Anymore” is a performance created as part of the international project Performing Gender. The intergenerational community that has trained and formed itself over a three-year creative period, has completed its final phase with theatre director Brina Klampfer Merčnik and choreographer Vita Osojnik. The central theme of all participating countries was the question of how to perform gender. A group from Slovenia, with participants aged 27 to 74, explored the theme of performing gender in different ways: in the form of workshops, conversations, homework tasks, improvisations and through dance. They explored the common movement of an intergenerational group and tried to focus on what intrigues us all, regardless of gender and age. The result is an author-based performance, a collage of scenes and of our reflections on the given theme. This performance has already been on tour in Sweden (Umea), England (Leeds). They have also run a workshop in the Netherlands (‘Hertogensbosch).
