Fruits or, The Decline of a Distant Memory

TAKDAJA

Established in 2017, TAKDAJA is an international experimental theatre collective that explores the body and space as raw performance tools. They don’t conform to conventional structures, instead the collective creates by transcending within the world around them.
TAKDAJA seeks new ways of communicating with the audience to further push boundaries between theatre, live art, and film.

They aim to create a theatre that’s not necessarily dependent on its story-line and which is accessible to those who may not always feel included by traditional approaches; a theatre with a pulsating core which embraces change and is not reliant on a specific theatrical space.

Press & Reviews

“It's an ambitious project and it's easy to see that a lot of thought has gone into it. From the wasteland-y set to the props, from the juxtaposition of the chapters to the acting, it's impressive.”

“Its nonsensical nature is uniquely neat and presents a disillusioned view of life that's resounding of the modern societal crisis and feels the aftermath of the overwhelming effects of the world.”

“The company are bold in their execution, with certain instances looking more like art installations or performance art as opposed to straight theatre. It's excessive and impertinent, vulgar and amusing. They explore identity, social cues, lust, and temperament with bewildering but perplexing methods.”
