Experience Monster Chetwynd as she activates her current exhibition in Hall 4 with a living collective of performers. Day for Night is a concentrated “best of” Monster Chetwynd’s iconic performance works. Over 45 minutes, a series of kaleidoscopic tableaux unfolds, featuring ballet, mime, song, puppetry and collective choreography.
Monster Chetwynd appears as ringmaster and host, guiding the audience through an energetic universe where ballet meets musical theatre, iconic film references and hand-crafted performative gestures. Bats, cats, mechanical dances and mythical figures emerge and disappear – imbued with Chetwynd’s characteristic humour, energy and handmade aesthetic.
Day for Night is a celebration of performance as a living collage: playful, chaotic and deeply collective.
