LONG VOYAGE HOME | Marthe Koning & Gerben Vaillant

A physical and poetic performance about coming home in a wavering reality. Marthe and Gerben crave stability. Certainty is scarce, yet they want to understand, predict, and fix the world. But what if instability and shakiness turn out to be our greatest anchors? In Long Voyage Home we enter a world that has let go of its fixed form. With humor and absurdity, Gerben Vaillant and Marthe Koning move through this unstable reality. They move with playful surrender between dance, song, and acting, while the falling theater curtains represent an amorphous world. After his highly appreciated passage last season with On almost every page, Gerben returns with Long Voyage Home, a tribute to the fragility of the inner and outer world. No promise of certainty, but a temporary resting point.
