Someone has to throw the same balls into the same bin day in day out. Nobody actually knows why. Instead of letting the walls come at Someone, they start throwing at them. By letting the balls follow new paths, someone tries to escape the colorless monotony. When that succeeds, something arises that you could call pure magic. Voor Ballroom you take a seat in a converted truck. Inside, juggler Stijn Grupping takes you thanks to a lot of practice and a bit of magic into an incredible dance of bouncing balls. A wordless trip for daydreamers. "Post uit Hessdalen defies all laws of nature in its new circus performance. White bouncing balls dance a strong statement against every form of mechanics. (...) don't forget to close your open mouth again after the performance" ★★★★ De Standaard "A powerful play in space and time that aptly asks questions about how we experience time as modern working people."
