Performance: JANA JACUKA "HA" | RAW'26
HA explores the performativity of laughter as an escaping mechanism.
"A friend of a friend put a hand around me, ha, I’m feeling insecure but I just went hahahaha."
In everyday situations, our boundaries are often crossed, leaving us unsure of how to respond. HA explores the performativity of laughter as an escaping mechanism.
By stripping away theatrical distractions, Jana Jacuka’s solo work emphasizes the raw and essential elements of performance, inviting the audience to engage with the visceral experience of extreme vocal practices. HA is an investigation of the voice as a choreographic tool. In HA the voice becomes an extension of the body. She grunts, fry-screams, speaks while inhaling and shifts into communication beyond words.
She will come empty handed.
It’s just the space,
her and you,
and suddenly
