Rising Ape

Descripción

Pumping, producing, optimizing, accelerating. And then from the beginning. Once again. And again. Inspired especially by the absurd world of the Shadocks – creatures that spent their time pumping without really knowing why – Rising Ape humorously deals with one of our time's great obsessions: productivity. On stage, Idriss Roca juggles, runs, manipulates objects, and adapts to increasingly demanding mechanisms. Everything is created before the eyes of the audience in a series of elaborate devices, where speed becomes an independent performance. The faster the tempo, the more the show reveals the flip side of the coin: pressure, exhaustion, the constant compulsion to do more, faster, and better. Drawing also from the world of speedrunning – a practice in video gaming where the goal is to finish a game in record time – Rising Ape transforms the stage into an absurd competition venue. Between virtuoso circus art, social satire, and a frantic race against time, the show makes us laugh and at the same time raises a highly relevant question: How far are we willing to go to stay efficient?
