ABOUT THIN MEN IN CANONS
Saturday, November 20 and Sunday, November 21
Family Album
- performed by Jens Blendstrup and Per Götz.

Family Album is a 60 minute long slide show with good ol’ 78rpm-music, pictures and anecdotes from the time that disappeared into effervescent shots of Alka Seltzer. Who doesn’t remember Auntie Minna’s summer vacation at the North Sea in ’57? Or physics teacher Mogens, who sent his students in orbit around the earth, without being able to help them down again? These two guys who will entertain the audience do.

Narco-flowers, mating with automatic cats and so on. All filled with memories of the time with Uncle and Auntie in Smørum Over with biscuit-cake and dusty juice, in the breaks from the wild games, where you hung on a fence and hid and never came in before dark.

So come on, friends. Come. And see the Denmark you miss between drinks with Grete and the ulcer with Kjeld.

Okinawagobeat
- performed by Frank Langmack.

Writer Frank Langmack has worked intensively for a year on a multicultural Spoken Word performance piece that examines the voice and the body’s possibilities for rhythmic poetry. With so varied sources of inspiration as Japanese folk music from Okinawa, Sonic Youth, Meridith Monk and Dj Coldcut, Frank Langmack with perform a performance-poetry concert.

The possibilities and limitations of the voice are tested. There will be speaking, beatboxing, humming, gurgling, screaming and singing – forwards and backwards. The oral tones melt together in the process into traditional Japanese instruments, Japanese electronics, scratch, high-frequency Chinese folk songs, breakdance, animal sounds and neon colored video projections.
