Pongoland by Nuno Lucas & Hermann Heisig, 2008

Pongo Land is the meeting of two very different bodies: those of Nuno Lucas and Hermann Heisig, authors and performers of this work.

On stage they explore their differences, similarities and possible or impossible relations between their bodies, causing a strong meeting between humour and monstrosity. They compare themselves, copy each other and compete incessantly, creating a state of constant transformation. Pongo Land confronts the limits of what is human normality and how we react to what is strange and different to us.
