A piano recital featuring only the page turner. A radio program hot on the trail of a whistleblower hiding in plain view of the audience. Radio Delirio imagines a classical concert taken over by the man no one was even meant to notice.
While dutifully minding the score, the page-turner weaves his own show over the music: a news exposé, cum manhunt, cum chronicle of a precarious sense of self. The language of investigative news is employed — warped and digressed from — counterpointed by a layered, hyperkinetic physical score.
Drawing on the culture of surveillance and whistleblowing scandals, Radio Delirio presents a tragicomic take on assimilation, derailment, and fear of inconsequence.
