Hall 4

Performance

The performance is part of CC10 – a three-day festival of performance, talks, and concerts at Copenhagen Contemporary, taking place from 23–25 January. The festival brings together artists, performers, and musicians in an intensive programme where performance unfolds across a wide range of forms and formats.

Over the course of all three days, audiences can experience a rich and varied programme of performances, talks, and concerts that activate the entire space of CC and create encounters between body, sound, movement, and storytelling.

Experience Monster Chetwynd as she activates her current exhibition in Hall 4 with a living collective of performers. Day for Night is a concentrated “best of” Monster Chetwynd’s iconic performance works. Over 45 minutes, a series of kaleidoscopic tableaux unfolds, featuring ballet, mime, song, puppetry and collective choreography.

Monster Chetwynd appears as ringmaster and host, guiding the audience through an energetic universe where ballet meets musical theatre, iconic film references and hand-crafted performative gestures. Bats, cats, mechanical dances and mythical figures emerge and disappear – imbued with Chetwynd’s characteristic humour, energy and handmade aesthetic.

Day for Night is a celebration of performance as a living collage: playful, chaotic and deeply collective.
