supersocial
Siim Tõniste & Üüve-Lydia Toompere
supersocial is a participatory performance of social choreography which examines how social environments influence the formation of free will and staying true to it. Are the things we believe in when being home alone the same as the ones we find to be true in a larger social setting?

The participants can form and define their views and find out what represents them. supersocial provides an opportunity for everyone to become their own social superhero, saving the world just as much as they wish, can or are bothered. Nobody is forced to do anything but on the other hand, nothing will happen if no one takes action.

Vehicle-ramming attacks have become a widely used tactic by terrorists to spread their extremist ideological messages in the 21st century. The method has been favoured for its simplicity. Building a bomb or getting access to firearms is complicated, but stealing a truck requires no training and no prior experience.
Plan T observes a society living in an age of terrorism. It speculates the possible reputation of everyday items such as motor vehicles and looks at public events, such as going to the theatre under the conditions of continuing and developing fear.
The performance views everyone as a potential terrorist but leaves them the option to disagree. It also teaches to react to the unexpected and looks for answers from people with supernatural abilities.
