Homo Irrationalis
Choreographed by Karol Cysewski

Performed by three smart yet idiotic male dancers, Homo Irrationalis is a physical and funny mission to discover the true nature of humankind.

Touring during September & November 2015 (see full details/ links below):
11 & 12 September: Chapter, Cardiff
4 November: Aberystwyth Arts Centre
6 November: Theatr Harlech
11 November: Riverfront, Newport (as part of Discover Dance festival)

Homo Irrationalis (Latin: “irrational human”) is a recently discovered new branch of the current dominant species Homo Sapiens (Latin: “wise human”). Through evolutionary adaptation, Homo Irrationalis beings have lost the ability to be sapient (thinking or wise), and so are locked into ever more erratic, unexplainable and irrational behaviours.

Three brilliant and unconventional researchers invite you to join a presentation on the evolutionary development of Homo Irrationalis. Through movement, projection and irreverent humour, they will take you on a journey from single cell organisms to “thinking human” and beyond. The aim is to examine the nature and degree of saturation of Homo Irrationalis within the population. Research suggests this new species could make Homo Sapiens extinct by the end of this century.

Are you one of these new hominoid beings, or are you still sapient? Is Homo Irrationalis a progressive or regressive evolutionary development? And are the researchers themselves still “wise humans”, or have they too become “irrational” beings?

This show premieres at Chapter, and then tours to Aberystwyth, Harlech and Newport.

It comes off the back of Karol's sell-out run at the 2014 Edinburgh Fringe with Wonders Of The Universe at Dance Base, earning him a four star review by Judith Mackrell in the Guardian. We are pleased to announce that Wonders will also be retouring in spring 2016 with support from Creu Cymru.
