KNAUS

When God is dead and heaven is empty, KNAUS searches for what is of value in this universe. We see a struggling soul in the world of today, who keeps searching to find an answer to the ultimate question: "Who am I?" The show zooms in mercilessly on our deep human need to be seen.

La Merde

‘La Merde’ is part two of the SKaGeN trilogy about heaven, purgatory and hell. Browsing in French literature, SKaGeN continues their search for the sense and nonsense of life. In ‘By my fault’ (2005) SKaGeN interpreted Jean Genet’s ‘Le Bagne’. For ‘La Merde’ the theatre group had a thorough reading of Albert Camus’ ‘La Peste’, a novel about a city in Algeria that falls prey to the plague. In the quarantine between the city walls, the characters are sentenced to each other. They try and make the best of it, through engagement, love and perseverance.

SKaGeN, De Roovers and De Nieuwe Tijd join forces for a contemporary version of the Paul Auster classic "Smoke". Six actors, a clever but very simple set and a lot of enthusiasm to meet on stage, promise a spectacular performance.

UNSUNG

UNSUNG goes back to the very beginning of political life: Why do leaders crave power in a democracy, where power is highly relative and where politicians are subject to the demands of voters, the media and interest groups? Why does a politician seek recognition in a job that is known to be the most unpopular ever?
