Silences

2023

A dance performance that invites the audience to immerse themselves in the journey of rushing thoughts that often arise before falling asleep.
The Dutch-born writer Matthijs Van Boxsel, conceptualizing the architecture of the French ahah and the English haha parks, differentiates between the human impression and the presence and absence of a sense of harmony. Based on the writer's thoughts and abstract but clear intentional images, the performers explore how to create a map of these thoughts and find an answer to the question: what is silence?
This search in a multi-layered movement, a stage filled with Dark Techno music and a world of rather dark, sometimes well-known thoughts become the axis of the performance.
