THE LEVIATHAN CAMARADERIE - an interactive performance about BDSM, powerstructures and our longing for belonging.

Our existing culture is a pointless barbary. It fails to provide us with any sense of meaning. It cannot keep us safe from brutality and obscenity. We are discontented and we are ashamed.”
The Leviathan Camaraderie Charter

THE LEVIATHAN CAMARADERIE / KAMRATFÖRENINGEN LEVIATHAN from POSTE RESTANTE on Vimeo.




The Leviathan Camaraderie is an immersive performance on the hardships of co-existence and the longing for belonging. It takes the form of a secretive society, a society that has disqualified the current civilization and shoulder the responsibility of formulating an alternative. By deconstructing culture as we know it and exorcising its lingering perversions the Leviathan Camaraderie seeks to lay the foundation of a new egalitarian world order. Visitors are invited to join the society as initiates, to learn the rules of the society and participate in its civilizational practices. Visitors who want a more challenging experience have the possibility to apply for full membership.



Poste Restantes creates performances in the scale of total situations where the audience is invited to get in intimate contact with complex questions and dilemmas on her own terms. The Leviathan Camaraderie is an independent part of Poste Restantes diptych exploring Freuds essay Civilization and Its Discontents. It is a performance that combines elements from Freud with the labour movement, BDSM, queer theory and club culture. It is a safe setting wherein the visitors are invited to take a closer look at their own relation to the conventions of power and desire.
