Stick in a Field

It's not the first time Shanti Straub performs a short performance on a festival. Maybe you've seen Mono Mono, a short performance about silence, or you've seen her running in Storm in a Glass of Water (Storm in a teacup) at Tweetakt Festival. For Stick in a field she frames musician Jeroen Mesker in a different context. The leadman and songwriter of the Roots, Rhythm and New Orleans jazz band Maison du Malheur  will shine his light on you. Short scenes and a longlasting image. Music makes it's entrance and questions arise. We will enter the music. Shanti and Jeroen are in it, and so are you. Why can't we look at ourselves from the outside? How will we look at this moment in the future? Stick in a field displays a rusty Americana musical vibe where Shanti asks questions, Jeroen answers, although the answers were there first.
