Synopsis
The White Lord is conceived as a mobile interdisciplinary comic performance for public spaces that leverages the characteristics of the environmental and architectural context of the hosting location (Site Specific). A performance in which the audience will undergo an intense auditory, visual, and psychological experience. It will be a sensory journey in three stages, located along a predetermined path. A form of Participatory Theater simulating the experience of a cult. The character TWL embodies the role of a charismatic, control-freak guru, while the audience "plays" the role of followers.
