CPPM’s LÄBU vol.2 ep.4 – Dita Lūriņa | Anette Pärn
The entire performance is a winding road, a tour through the “waistland” that begins in nature mockumentary style before turning in parts to semiotics lecture, dance, Duolingo-esque session, bedtime story, personal recollection, and more.
Kanuti Guild SAAL3, vol. 4 | Norman Orro, Mihkel Maripuu, and Viktoria Martjanova
Altogether, it feels like a meditation—it is easy to get lost in the moment, the world shrinking down to just lights, noise, and sensation. It is disorienting, in the best of ways.
CPPM’s LÄBU vol.2 ep.4 – Ana Trif | Charis Taplin

As part of the Tallinn Fringe, EAMT’s CPPM Master’s program presents their second volume of Läbu (Estonian for a sort of post-party mess), a contemporary solo performance festival. Throughout the program’s run, there…
