Næst á Dagskrá
Næst á Dagskrá is a performance group formed in early 2019 around a solo project of mine at the Icelandic University of the Arts. The name of the group translates directly to: Next up. The performances are durational pieces dealing with the existensial mundaneness of everyday life. Alternating between long and silent slow motion chapters and short spurs of high energy happiness, our characters wander around without an endlessly. We have produced two performances of Next up: Life and Vacation.
