Fabuleus/Armin Mola (4th secondary)

Actor and theater maker Armin Mola traveled to different corners of our country in recent years with his successful performance I love (and hate) you, Iran. Along the way, thanks to the many encounters and conversations, Armin collected a wealth of information about the local culture. In I love (and hate) you, Belgium, he sketches in a humorous and critical way what makes Belgium, Belgium for him. Armin steps into the skin of diverse characters and their different worldviews and experiences. Freestyling with voice, language, and accents, he weaves his personal story with social and political questions around nationality and identity. After more than 80 performances of I love (and hate) you, Iran in Belgium and the Netherlands, he is also developing this new chapter into a striking monologue. Besides his solos at fABULEUS, Armin also played in various performances at, among others, tg STAN and Symfonieorkest Vlaanderen, and in the TV series Hoodie and Sterregem. I love (and hate) you, Belgium gives space to the anger, the coldness, the obstacles, and the rain, but also to the great love for language, its accents, juiciness, and tongue twisters. Armed with nothing but words, Armin Mola wins over the whole country. EXTRA: The intention is to send someone along with every school performance who does a short foreword (5') and also moderates a short follow-up conversation (10').
