Event Description
Winner of Best International Production at the 2015 Amsterdam Fringe Festival
Imaginary Anthropologies showcases the virtuosity, versatility and strangeness of the human voice while dealing with questions such as post-colonialism, post-exoticism, cultural extinction, globalization, normalized racism and cultural appropriation in an ambiguous, humorous and disturbing way.
In a reversal of academic lecture conventions, Dharmoo as the embodiment of the subject of analysis and scrutiny is physically present on stage, where as the featured “experts” comment on invented vocal traditions from the video screen.
"...I began to realize the brilliance of the show, which Gabriel gradually illuminated until it shone bright as a solstice noon." - review on thecritter.co.za by Steve Kretzmann.
