Ursus & Nadeschkin SYNCHRONISED SWIMMING – THE DRY VERSION (2018, english)
47m
Ursus & Nadeschkin on stage are a neurotic mess, a highly unstable pair obsessed with detail and wordplay. Each evening with U&N offers a fresh and unique performance as improvisations crop up throughout their pro- grams. It‘s impossible to know what‘s rehearsed and what‘s newly sprung from the dynamic they create. The spontaneity we witness has grown out of a long and intense partnership, wherein intuition and experience fuse into a firm confidence on stage. Artistry of many forms, including physical and verbal acrobatics, are skillfully employed as U&N teasingly play to, against, and finally beyond the audience‘s expectations, leaving us surprised as well as delighted by the spell they have woven.
«The show, like U & N themselves, demands to be seen!» (nytheatre.com) «The swiss german Marx-Brothers!» (Village Voice New York)
«Best of all, poeple still laugh from start to finisch with these magnificent liars. Big time!» (Curtain Up New York)
«Their show meanders chaotically through several different kinds of perfor- mance art including dance, bilingual joke-telling, singing, drumming and fine art visual gags. Highly recommended!» (
