Postmortem

Studio Lacuna & Church of Clown |  July 2025


Toying with the detective tradition with a bizarre twist, Postmortem traces the investigation game of a detective duo within a black-and-white cityscape as they roam in search of a mystery among vast memories and existential oblivion. Inspired by absurdist theatre, Roberto Bolaño’s “detective” poems from The Romantic Dogs, and the streets of San Francisco, this performance visualizes a post-apocalyptic world at the convergence of abstraction and mundanity.Co-produced by Studio Lacuna and Church of Clown, SF.
