The Estonian performer Mart Kangro is not averse to radical changes. A few years ago, for instance, he said farewell to his ballet career at the National Opera of Estonia and decided to concentrate on contemporary dance. Since then, he has

In so doing he focuses mainly on the relationship between artist and public. In Can’t get no / Satisfaction, Kangro transposes the phenomenon of stand-up comedy to dance. He examines how the performer handles the realisation that his success is directly dependent on the spectator’s laughter. This piece is a fragile and funny dance performance in which Kangro constantly moves back and forth between his artistic convictions and the critical eye of the audience.
