ONCE UPON A FIGHT
2024
Once Upon a Fight is the performative exploration of what twinhood can hold in a hyper-individualized world.
by navigating these complexities, TWINS CORPORATED took their everyday arguments to the theater stage,
divided in two acts:
On a rainy and windy day, two identical characters take the stage.
Amidst their everyday arguments, they swap roles; rehearsing what it is to be. In the never-ending pursuit of
becoming the sole winner, they steer away aimlessly, beginning anew as soon as it ends.
Holding a script, a third figure emerges to narrate and guide the characters actions.
Between love-management and arm wrestling,
mundanity of everyday life takes hold;
leaving behind a scattered and interconnected unit that never, fully, came to be.
