Tue 21.04 - Wed 22.04.09

In the 80s Thomas Bernhard wrote three novels on the arts: Der Untergeher, about the pianist Glenn Gould, Alte Meister, about painting, and Holzfällen, about theatre. Twelve years ago STAN adapted the second part of this trilogy. Damiaan De Schrijver and Jolente De Keersmaeker have now created an adaptation of part three.

It was while working on De versie Claus that the writer Mark Schaevers and theatre-maker Josse De Pauw were caught unawares by the news that Hugo Claus had chosen to have his life brought to an end. Their ‘Claus version’, intended as a tribute, now became a memorial for the master of Flemish literature.

Thu 29.01 - Sat 31.01.09

Philosophy and art run away with each other in this piece by Kuno Bakker and Jorn Heijdenrijk. They drew their inspiration from the frivolous and controversial ideas on freedom and happiness propagated by the 18th-century philosopher Julien Offray de la Mettrie. Mannetje met de lange lul (Little Chap with the Big Prick) is about freedom of thought and action, both on and off stage.

Tue 25.11 - Sat 29.11.08

Frank Vercruyssen and Tine Embrechts are working on a play based a.o. on the short story Plumes de bécasse by the Greek writer Thanassis Valtinos. This novella tells the story of a married couple. She wants a divorce, but he does not. She is quite insufferable, he possibly even more so. The title (stay / away) perfectly captures the atmosphere of their conversations, which is anything but peaceful!

Triptiek van de macht - part 3. Atropa. De wraak van de vrede centres on the Trojan War. The Greek general Agamemnon is confronted with the victims of his decisions. This involved Tom Lanoye rewriting several Greek tragedies. Here, as in his other plays, Guy Cassiers is a subtle master at combining the written word, image and acting.

In Wald, three voices are confronted with one another. The actors Tom de Hoog and Hilde Wils tell us the stories of those who were interned in the concentration camps and of those who try to imagine what it was like (texts by Heinrich Heine, W.G. Sebald, Marguerite Duras). The third voice is that of music. Seated at the piano is Alain Franco, who presents us with a musical discourse, with music from Zimmermann, Brahms, van Beethoven, Robert Schumann a.o.

In 2007 Carly Wijs performed Niemand kan het, a monologue the Dutch photographer and writer Hans Aarsman wrote in consultation with her. In 1995 Aarsman gave up photography. ‘Because it is something nobody can do’, nobody can record the true nature of the world in an image. Do we really see what there is to be seen? In her ironic approach, Wijs constantly misleads the audience.

nusch is based on the poems Uninterrupted Poetry (1945) and Nusch (1950) and the volume of poetry Time overflowing (1947) by the French poet Paul Eluard, one of the most important representatives of surrealism. Nusch (Maria Benz) was his life companion and muse. The poems he wrote for her are amongst the most beautiful love poems in French literature.
