Blablablastik, by Samuel Hamen, is the latest radio play in the Kappkino series. Featuring Catherine Janke and Konstantin Rommelfangen. Directed by Anne Simon. Music and composition by Michel Meis.
This production is a co-production of Openscreen asbl with the Kasemattentheater and the CAPE - Centre des Arts Pluriels Ettelbruck.
In Blablablastik, a material is made audible: plastic. From the best-selling furniture of all time, the white Monobloc chair, to the melancholic plastic bag scene from the movie American Beauty, plastic is omnipresent in our world. Through the personal life story of a woman heard in this piece, whose thoughts are ruled by the obsession with plastic, the history of this material and its touchpoints with our societal and individual consumption are explored.
How has this material influenced this woman's life? What role does it play in shaping our experiences in the 20th and 21st centuries? The woman in this story comes from an earlier generation and must adjust to the new attitude towards plastic. As a mother, she also worries about her growing son's health. Different study results accompany the woman's monologue to offer listeners a more nuanced perspective on one of the most controversial materials in our daily lives, without being didactic.
In the spirit of Kappkino, Blablablastik is performed in a completely dark room and without visual stimuli, allowing people to fully focus on the auditory experience. Sounds and music produced by plastic instruments can also be heard to express the core theme on another level. Thus, everyone can create their own film and thoughts in their minds.
