Here & Now at HOME

Developed and performed by Swiss artist Trân Tran, Here & Now seeks to examine the relationship between audience and performer, celebrating the beautiful ‘here and now’ of live theatre.

Why do we come together in the theatre? To laugh? To be moved? To discover a story? Or, more trivially, to get value for money? If there is a recipe for a show, what ingredients would the audience put forward?

In this witty and interactive show, Trân Tran tries to fulfill the performative expectations of their audience. This is a show of possibilities – a complete embrace of liveness – Here & Now changes every time it is performed.

Trân Tran’s work seeks to explore the fundamentals of human connection and the drive to be connected through art. In this new work, performed at HOME, the audience is asked to reconnect with the notion of being present with a live performer.
