Ikarai | NL

The main characters from the books by the Japanese writer Haruki Murakami know exactly who they are. And that's exactly the problem. He ascribes talking cats to them, fish falling from the sky, places where time does not exist and thoughts that become reality, to show them: stop becoming who you are. In alienating, absurdist books he takes you into another dimension. It's exactly what Ikarai does, with the 3D performance Murakami. In this performance you experience the writer three-dimensionally. Set to lyrics, visuals and a combination of classical and jazz music, you can't help but simply be, sometimes in confusion, sometimes in wonder.
