Welcome to the EEN GROT VOL SLIJM MET EEN RIETJE travel page. We are delighted that our show can feature on your stage.
If you'd like to feature this show or if you require further information, then please contact Thassos.
The scenery plays the starring role,
it crashes and scours its way across the stage and uses ropes and pulleys to transform one setting into the next.
Have I been here before?
Is it a dark castle?
Is it very long corridor?
A vacant dancehall, its door just blown open?
The lair of a fox?
A tiny garden?
A green icebox adorned with snow?
Or is it slime?
Have all the living beings disappeared from the stage, or are they still there?
Theatre-makers Benjamin Verdonck and Lucas Van Haesbroeck are conjurers who
have spent many years elevating the most ordinary objects into theatrical set-pieces.
They seek inspiration in the extensive archives held by the DE MAAN theatre group
and in the technical complexities of puppetry.
