ROTOR #3 – Sisyphus Machine is ROTOR’s new physical mime performance: a depiction of the timeless struggle and quest for freedom, inspired by Albert Camus’ reading of the Myth of Sisyphus. Sisyphus is condemned to spend eternity pushing a boulder up a mountain. In his reading of the myth, Camus draws a parallel between myth and life: he highlights the beauty in the absurdity of our existence and the human need to find meaning in it. his is the starting point from which ROTOR faces meaninglessness in this minimalist performance.

A search for the purpose and meaning of the human condition, and an ode to will and resilience. ROTOR takes you on a physical journey of self-discovery and introspection in a celebration of the power of movement. How do we find our freedom in the seemingly endless repetition of the everyday? How do we give life meaning when it seems meaningless? How do we relate to a future that is increasingly uncertain?
