KUTOMO RESIDENCY: Sara Melleri and Elsa Tölli: Diiva räjähtää nurmikoksi live (working title)

Actor, director, and performer Sara Melleri and poet and performer Elsa Tölli worked at Ehkä-production's residency at Contemporary Art Space Kutomo in the last weeks of May. The duo experimented with the new performance Diiva räjähtää nurmikoksi live (Diva explodes into grass live, working title), which is a performance performed and directed by both Tölli and Melleri.

SHOWNUMBER IN PROGRESS

There is an electric wire.
Thunderbolt is about to happen.
Fresh performer is being born,
Horrendous.
Every word is spat out like a kiss.
We have been an audience
for each other. Please,
stop throwing bouquets
at me

We explore and challenge our own taste in performance, stage speech, and spoken poetry.
For example, Elsa has performed a slow-motion bedtime routine, and Sara made a shownumber out of Karita Mattila’s tweet.
We turned this Kutomo residency into our very own Grey Gardens cabaret.
