The empty chair

And now? What happens to us now? Unexpected loss creates cracks in what was whole. The silence is deafening. And then the notes come, the words flow. Longing forms the common thread in ‘de lege stoel’ (the empty chair), where original music and word try to capture a difficult period. Compagnie Lieren sings and plays for a godchild and best friend, Sanne dances through the stories to piano music. Music and word: Lien Vermeiren and Karen Vandenbranden Composition: Lien Vermeiren Dance: Sanne Kiekens Direction: Katrijn Govaert
