This show is an ultra-theatrical approach to poetry, a cabaret-style humorous performance where characters from the poems come alive as three-dimensional personalities. They also try to kidnap the Poet and change the plot to their liking.
Aime the Theatrical Poet is the artistic director of the show who is trying to maintain the law and order. But the whimsical characters storm past her, into the lime light. Aime’s co-stars involve: A Certain Herr Professor, No-Nonsense Girl Next Door, A Well-Behaved Space Alien, A Babe With Suspicious Intenions, many others.
On a more realistic note: this is a one-woman show where the performer plays many different characters. Little scenes appear one after another, the characters interact with the audience and one another. The performance is a fusion of comedy plays, physical theatre, poetry and features of standup comedy.
ABOUT THE ARTIST: Aime the Theatrical Poet is an Estonian writer, performance artist and visual artist. She graduated from the university as a linguist, but also leads a parallel life as a creative artist.
Aime has published several books of poetry and prose, has taken part at numerous performance projects in Estonia and abroad and showcased her artwork at exhibitions. Current performance is her new solo show that premiered this year. Theatricality and storytelling are trademark features of Aime’s poetry. Aime feels that her current style of poetry is most influenced by her encounters with London live poetry scene where she was an active participant at a certain period of her life.
