In a capitalist realism regime, the megacorporation WKW III launches its most ambitious pilot project: EVERAFTER. It is a demo of playbour hyperreality designed to extract profit from the promise of unlimited self-fulfillment. This demo houses its first seven meta-inhabitants: Fifth Lad, Violet Fox, The Kasper, BackPack X, Sean Coby, Hairy Oxter, and Wilta Wound Wank; constantly waiting for the project to materialize, and thus reduced to the status of perpetual interns in a performative suspension of potential. The audience accesses this multiverse as an investor participating in a voyeuristic tourist experience, observing up this world in construction up close. Come meet EVERAFTER and its seven inhabitants.
laSADCUM was founded in 2019 in Barcelona by Guillem Jiménez, with a first small-scale creation, The Uncanny Valley (2019). In 2022, at the Dansa Metropolitana festival, they presented their first large-scale stage production, the award-winning Acucalls (2022), followed by Navaja (2024; DansaCat Awards 2024 for Best Show).
