Waldeinsamkeit

Benjamin Verdonck/ Lucas van Haesbroeck |

Share this show

From a room to a black hole to an overripe piece of fruit. The Flemish theatre maker Benjamin Verdonck [1972] takes the strange leap inside his Wunderkammer, a baroque miniature in pale colours, with hatches that open and close, with light and darkness and lots and lots of cords to pull.

What about the title? Waldeinsamkeit is usually translated as ‘a deep sense of connection that one feels when alone in the woods.’ But it also refers to feeling unsafe inside a dark and unpredictable space. Don’t say we didn’t warn you.

This show will play continuously between 13.00 and 23.30 and is free of charge between 13.00 and 14.00. Ticket sales are at the central Block Box counter, where a passe-partout can also be bought for the other two Block Box shows.
