Humortage Liestal: Alex Porter - Hallucination

Description

Alex Porter, a disillusionist? Although Porter, without ever claiming otherwise, reaches into the magician's trick box, illusion and reality blur together over the course of the evening. His craft seems to have become even more refined over the decades, and those watching him cannot help but question their own perception. In Hallucination, Porter deceives his audience thoroughly and yet reveals himself increasingly as an anti-disillusionment artist. He demonstrates strong evergreen tricks and voice-robatic singing performances. His magic is to be understood as poetic anarchy. Porter's interaction with the audience, paired with his honest self-irony, makes the evening a point of escape, a poetic stopover in our often so hallucinationless world. "Hallucination is weightless and agile, and easily shows that while one can look at reality from different angles, reality cannot be arbitrarily bent" – Voice from the audience. https://alexporter.ch Door opening hall: 7:00 PM all unnumbered seats
