Sadboi

Sadboi instagrams, therefore he exists. He likes his suffering raw. He is gay, horny and extremely peaceful.

Sadboi is an autofictional portrayal of a dancer navigating the terrain of contemporary, hyperconnected existence. Through radical honesty and irony-poisoned, almost absurd elements, the work explores sex, love, and sadness in a hypersexualised technological era. A chronically online, doomcore landscape shaped by memes, heartbreak and digital longing. Where can a crack occur in this nihilist feedback loop?

If love songs are dumb, wait till you hear this one. How many fire emojis will this get? The admins of this show are searching for validation.

Sadboi premiered in the Platform of New Choreographers in Limassol, Cyprus in December 2021.
