Surplace - Johnny MUS & Het Laatste Bedrijf with Mieke Laureys & Danny Ronaldo

Two people. A woman and a man. They are in the middle of life. Too old to still be young. Too young to accept that nothing is possible anymore and nothing is required anymore. They are at a standstill. Like in cycling: balancing with your feet on the pedals, you are in full motion but you are no longer moving forward. In In Surplace, Mieke Laureys (Johnny MUS) and Danny Ronaldo (Circus Ronaldo) take stock together. Two players who have known and appreciated each other for years share their love for the small stories behind the human being. Their meeting on stage is a duet of tenderness, humor, and recognition. Live music from accordion and flute weaves through their playing, comfortingly lifting memories or perhaps just lighting the fire again. Surplace is not a performance about being old, but about the road to it. About balancing between yesterday and tomorrow, between melancholy and desire, between dreams and reality. About the illusion that you can plan life and control it, and the realization that growing older cannot be directed after all. An ode to being on the way, to the art of letting go, to the game of life itself.
