This is a musical, presents a laboring body in the production of a visceral, discordant and deeply queer electronic fantasy. Karol Tyminski’s body is the instrument for the sample, the electronic music he wields comes into being through a brutal choreography. This musical is a layered archive of the body’s desire, building towards a massive trance-like space of madness and pleasure.

This is a musical was supported by Open Latitudes, Instytut Sztuk Performatywnych. Tanzfabrik Berlin, and Center in Motion Choreographers Workspace. Performances of ‘This is a musical’ for American Realness 2017 are supported by the Trust for Mutual Understanding.
