My late grandfather's temple Frascati Producties / Melyn Chow
My late grandfather's temple (working title) stems from the need to once again question and fight the imposed taboos with which Melyn grew up.
On stage, the players explore the similarities between possession in a ritual, religious context and the complete, uncompromising surrender of a performer in the theatre. What if we try to surrender with the same dedication to forces that reason cannot explain and clarify? How can we reclaim space for the mystical, the inexplicable, that is often suppressed in our Western European society?
In the performance, Melyn integrates videos filmed in Singapore and Malaysia with live performances, in order to figuratively build a bridge between her environment here and her home there.
