Trouble score, Luanda Casella / NTGent

'Trouble Score' is a witty and disruptive storytelling concert about the hardships of living with trauma and healing from it. Siblings Luanda Casella and Pablo Casella delve into an old family scandal, a web of fragmented criminal stories, only to unravel an impossible plot. A plot where childhood innocence clashes with the distorted reality of trauma, collected against the backdrop of racial segregation and a military dictatorship. With plenty of humour and complicity, Trouble Score captures the fantastic, mysterious, and often hallucinatory nature of family dynamics. The show turns to magic realism to transform negative events into pop songs, coping mechanisms into hyperbolic analogies, and unhealthy patterns into healing mantras.
