It only took one little piece of madeleine cake
Nostalgia<<2012 comes to London following performances on tour in Europe and the UK, including VIZII International Visual Culture Festival and Colchester Arts Centre.
Che Kevlin brings together conversation, film, and 35mm slide projection to investigate what makes him who he is and why, structuring his solo performance around three life changing experiences.
How do we shape our memories?
It is so refreshing to watch a different style of performance which is not so theatrical, but more quiet and honest. The way Che spoke to us, as if we are in his living room, was what carried this piece and touched me directly.
