Tue 03.05 - Wed 04.05.16

With donkey’s ears on his head, Lucas Vandervost takes Ludwig Wittgenstein’s Tractatus Logico-Philosophicus, an essential philosophical work on the relationship between world and language, and turns it to his own ends. Not as a lesson in philosophy, but in a unique monologue in which he reveals and analyses Wittgenstein.

Peter Verhelst/NTGent

Wed 27.04 - Sat 30.04.16

Peter Verhelst writes and directs a piece about the dark alliance between love and violence. A man returns from a military mission during which he has committed both murder and rape. His wife knows about this, but still allows him to come back home, out of love for her daughter. Is resilience and forgiveness enough to enable you to live with a monster? Our society is obsessed with transgressors – Verhelst, however, is obsessed with those who want to (or have to) live with them. Els Dottermans plays the mother, An Miller her daughter.

In Jean Cocteau’s farewell monologue The Human Voice (1927) – in which you see and hear a woman phone her ex-lover for the last time – the telephone plays a merciless role. It is only the woman’s reactions that hint at her absent ex’s replies. Who is it on the other end of the line? Now Ramsey Nasr presents his version of events, again directed by Ivo Van Hove.

Has democracy become something we passively endure? Christophe Meierhans is testing out the notion, and you are his guinea pig. He invites you to prepare a meal – turning the kitchen into a political battleground! There’s nothing more challenging than taking part in the action onstage and thereby sharing responsibility for the result.

In Beckett Boulevard , Natali Broods, Willem de Wolf and Peter van den Eede present a play of which we know the start but not where it ends. A Faustian descent to the places where power resides. Somewhere in the middle, so it seems. A ‘badly-made play’.

Wed 06.01 - Thu 07.01.16

This – unexpectedly current – rerun from 2008 shows Paris from the perspective of the artist-immigrant. During the 20th century countless people took refuge in the French capital, including many artists and intellectuals. Just as likely, they ended up working as taxi drivers or street cleaners. Christian Bakalov’s depictions of their social exclusion and humiliation urge you to question your own feelings of empathy and solidarity.

Het Theaterfestival 2015 - Using words like bullets, Robbrecht throws himself uninhibitedly into the struggle, with no illusion that we shall ever be able to manage without war. He draws inspiration from an army of contemporary futurists, entrepreneurs and electro-technicians who are already waging the smouldering war in all its forms on the internet. A performance that’s infectiously intoxicating.
