Three Times Left Is Right

Trigger Warning: Three Times Left is Right is an urgent and darkly humorous piece about polarisation.

In their new performance, Studio Julian Hetzel asks: How do we coexist with those whose beliefs are worlds apart from our own? Three Times Left is Right focuses on a couple at odds. Torn between conflicting beliefs, they embody the challenge of living together under irreconcilable ideologies. A family portrait that magnifies the fractures of society. “I love to hate you. I hate to love you.” A performance that takes you along a political Möbius strip. What if your moral compass shifts? What if you think right but act left—or the other way around? What happens when polarization becomes so extreme we can no longer tell the difference?

This performance is an invitation for the audience to explore ideological conflicts in which violence is normalised. Three Times Left is Right turns theater into a space for speculation to stage an unsettling future scenario. Everything has an end – but a sausage has two.

about
aengus havinga began developing his artistic language early in life. Growing up in various parts of Europe he was surrounded by a various amount of parallel cultures. And thanks to his parents obsession with electronic music and dance, Aengus is able to experience music within various forms.
but wait
he learned to play some piano as a teenager visiting some classic, emo pop and indie rock, but quickly gravitated to teaching himself music production with a midi keyboard and laptop. In his lowkey home studio Aengus channels his wide range of interest and incorporates it in his personal sound in developing an own signature.
