"In preparation for a psychodrama" was developed and staged with the local theatre group Teaterslaget in Grängesberg, a former mining town in the north of Sweden. Through a combination of improvisation and scripted performance, the actors carried out exercises exploring and tapping into registers of frustration. Placed in a setting shaped by older ideals, they are waiting for a future that is yet to begin. Feverish activities in the struggle to clean up and reconfigure the props from a preceding civilisation are interpolated with their fumbling attempts to find new contexts and ways of relating to one another.
