B.I.G.T. (But it’s getting there) - Johan Heldenbergh

In B.I.G.T. (But it’s getting there), Johan Heldenbergh brings a poignant confession, carried by live music, about a world that is becoming increasingly dark — and about the question of how we must continue to ‘feel, think, and speak’ when cynicism threatens to paralyze us. A story about guilt, disappearing ideals, about the importance of small words and small deeds. About despair and the fragile hope that continues to light up, precisely when it is too late. A confession that looks nowhere away and examines what it essentially means to be human. A performance that comforts, chafes, and wakes up. Johan Heldenbergh brings a moving theater monologue in a musical context. “Since people did not know a cure for death, misery, and ignorance and yet wanted to be happy, they decided not to think about it.” (Pascal, 1623-1662) “There are two kinds of people: righteous who consider themselves sinners and sinners who consider themselves righteous.” (Pascal, 1623-1662)
