Cold War 2.0

COLD WAR 2.0 is a phantasmagoric live performance from the twilight of a global crisis by ‘theatrical saboteurs’ (The Age) Doppelgangster (Australia/UK).

A high-energy mixture of anarcho-punk, cheap illusions, and frenetic dialogue between two inhuman performers that intercuts the intimate, criminal, and troubling details of their lives.

A kaleidoscopic examination of social atomisation, alienation, and misinformation in which two losers in a motel room eat snow cones, watch you via drone, and burn out a karaoke machine.

From the company responsible for ‘The Anarchy (1138-53)’ & ‘A Sound like Thunder’; generating record walkouts, physical fights, cancellations, and cult followings.
