zarb zurkhane & punching bag

WE IN A BOX is a concert with boxer Everline Akinyi Odero on punching bag and percussionist Joss Turnbull on hand and finger drums. It explores consistently the physical, and acoustic parallels and similarities between boxing and drumming. Through looking at boxing as a chain of movements and sounds it becomes the acoustic counterpart to the drums. The somatic experiences of the two performers are witnessed through their intense physical activity. The display of physical power, trance and states of exhaustion turn the performance into an intimate, and almost poetic-like scene.
