Lasterday NEW lifeDUET by Hanna Kiel


With this new duet Lasterday, we explore how two individuals carry different memories and perceptions of the same events from their shared past. This concept delves into various aspects of their relationship, including their sense of timeline, emotional impacts, and interactions throughout their life journey, all through the lens of how they remember and interpret their shared history.

Karen and Allen will premiere the duet at Older + Reckless in November 2023, then will be touring in BC in 2024. Locations will be announced soon.

  • "A profound exchange, I witnessed the ephemeral nature of life."

    Hanna Kiel on the creative process

    Audience member

  • "What a fine piece of work! We were moved and amused by so many moments of self-recognition. It is a great artistic achievement to find the “universal” in such personal moments. To communicate so much through emblematic movement and gesture – what a triumph!”
