That’s All, Folks! is a show about ephemeris, about collective memory, about remembering and immortalising. This show revisits dates, maps events and images that populate our imagination and teach us what to love, what to hate or who to avoid. What ideas are embodied in these celebrations? We celebrate in order not to forget – but what do we really celebrate? Who decides what should be forgotten? Plataforma285 asks many questions: “Love, admiration, sparkle. Here we are, at this moment of consecration, where we remember that here lies the real reason for this collective celebration – although we don’t realise exactly what it is. There are so many dates, so many festivals, and in all of them the same love, the same admiration, the same glow. Someone dies and a holiday is born. What’s not to love? And so we continue to celebrate the rural, the popular, the folkloric, the beautiful images of romantic rurality. What could be better?”
Please be aware that strobe lights are used in this show.
