Kap / Contact

Kap (translated from Armenian as "connection") is a performance that explores the limits of empathy.

It consists of two parts, each offering a unique form of interaction between the performers and the audience.

In both parts, the performers do not rely on pre-prepared or memorized text as the material for their stage actions. The entire text of the performance, its entire logos, is born in real time—right in the auditorium. As the performers respond to this evolving text, they initiate a complex process of emotional and semantic exchange, in which it soon becomes unclear—and, more importantly, irrelevant—who is the author and who is the spectator. This is an embodiment of experience, where the boundaries between participants dissolve, leaving only the sincerity of the moment.
