What is ROOM 306.

ROOM 306 is a live multimedia performance, involving audiovisual projection, dance, music composition and poetry.

It has a modular personality: It can be experienced as a music performance, theatre & dance show, site specific, film or concept platform.

Filming ROOM 306.

During the end of July and August we will be in film production for the audiovisual part of the project.

We will be shooting in several locations in Lugano, Ticino (CH).

The story.

The story revolves around a crime scene. The dead body of a young woman in room 306 sparks an investigation. As our Narrator comes more and more involved in the elucidation of the facts, he realises his own responsibility in the act of the crime.

When will it be presented.

A first cut will be presented as a live music and audiovisual performance in Piazza Manzoni, Lugano, Switzerland, on Saturday 22nd of August.

How are we investing your support.

With your help we will cover production costs for the audiovisual production of Room 306: Set material, costumes & masks, technical & lighting solutions, rigging equipment, as well as technicians, production staff and cast members.

A bit of backstory.

ROOM 306 is the outcome of work done for Miss Understanding, a dance and live music and performance piece presented both in theatre (Teatro Foce, Lugano) and WKND dance club during 2014.

The richness of material now finds its translation into an audiovisual journey accompanied by a live music performance.
