Angry spirits - Lazarus

Is violence justified and if so, to what extent? Those questions, those issues. Vintage Dostojevski, vintage LAZARUS. As a closing piece in the adaptation of his four great novels, LAZARUS started working with Boze Geesten, by far the most political of the four. The story takes place in a small, wealthy community in the countryside, where the peace is disturbed when the young generation wants to unleash a revolution out of dissatisfaction. Their approach is reckless and destructive, without a concrete plan for the future. Nihilists and socialists, God and the old power structures... Angry spirits and demonic innocence alternate in a parade of passionate characters who come to fight for their honor and their faith. “LAZARUS balled more than 700 pages into an hour and a half of theater, with clever omissions, double roles, and some conspicuous cinematic tricks. (...) Crackling ensemble theater.” - Liv Laveyne, De Standaard **** From and with Anna De Graeve, Koen De Graeve, Pieter Genard, Günther Lesage, Ineke Nijssen, Ryszard Turbiasz, Joris Van Den Brande & Fiene Zasada Kostuum Eline Willemarck & Amber De Saeger Scenografie LAZARUS & Jasper Vanhalle Lichtontwerp Jasper Vanhalle Productie Theater Arsenaal Coproductie Perpodium Foto Raymond Mallentjer Met support of De Vlaamse Overheid & De Tax Shelter Van De Belgische Federale Overheid
