GOLEM
- Thomas Ryckewaert
14 December 2016 @ De Vooruit, Gent
In Golem
Thomas Ryckewaert gets to work with The Homunculus of Maimonides, a
14th century Jewish legend. Maimonides, a notorious man of science,
is looking for the secret of creation - hoping to outwit death.
Using a stilled, filmic imagery, Ryckewaert combines
contemporary science and an age-old human ambition. The desire to
create (eternal) life goes hand in hand with a coeval fear: the
creation of something that outflanks us. It's a theme that has been
fascinating man for ages: from the mythical Golem, passing by
Frankenstein to artificial intelligence. A visual performance on the
small border between creation and destruction, between reason and
fear.

KAMYON - Michael De Cock / Mesut
Arslan
from 6 December until 17 December
2016 @ Theatre National, Brussels
from 18
until 21 December 2016 @ KVS, Brussels
Kamyon illustrates the concept of migration to children and
their families.The starting point is the story Two small bags, ten
million dreams. A young girl is talking about a trip to the promised
land. On her road through Europe, the girl is wondering why she can
only take two small bags and why she has to leave all her cuddly
toys behind, all but one.
Like the girl, the lorry
travels through Europe. The play follows the road that many migrants
have taken and the audience, the children and their families
who have listened to her story, will form a long trail across
Europe.

LES SOEURS / Freija Van
Esbroek - Erki De Vries
27 December @ De Maan Mechelen
Les
Soeurs is a visual and musical family performance in which two
enormous puppets -two sisters- play a leading role. In a big
and sophisticated installation a wordless play arises,
circling around themes like vulnerability, (in)dependency and
emotions. Together with the audience the puppets discover
themselves, each other and the world around them. Who really pulls
the strings?
In Les Soeurs, the artists create a
poetical universe between fantasy and reality. Les
Soeurs is an associative and dynamic performance on the
boundaries of theatre, music, dance and plastical arts.
