In Steelo & Th’Future, Kristina Wallace plays the charismatic workshop holder Steelo, an influencer from Belgium who knows the important people you really should know. You will be safely guided through a feelgood session, and experience a slice of the future. "Th'Future is scary, but also beautiful ... eh?"
Confronted by capitalism, social media and power indiscretions, Th'Line focuses on body and image in their work - to the extreme! The company is committed to artistically explore intricate themes that can feel complex and difficult to talk about. It is now just over a year since #metoo was in the media in Norway, and with the performance Steelo, we want to emphasise the importance of continuing to highlight issues related to the abuse of power and harassment in order to work through these issues and for structural changes to take place. The performance also addresses how in today's "scrolling" society we do not go into depth on issues and take to name-dropping to appear up-to-date and important. In Steelo's case, it is the popular theme of the environment and climate.
Steelo & Th’Future becomes a contemplation of how a particular social setting can affect the individual's boundaries and how power can be abused.
It is both impressive and unpleasant how Wigdel and Wallace allow us to study an example of a close-up #metoo situation. Andrea Csaszni Rygh, scenekunst.no
