Later when I grow up...
Yes, what actually happens when I get older? Is a lot going to change? And does that hurt?
What does that teenager actually think?
But yes, how was I myself?
Am I annoying every now and then? Or are those mainly the others?
Later when I grow up I will be...
annoying!
Sometimes the others are really KAPOT IRRITANT and don't understand anything at all! Or am I not allowed to say that? Where should I go with all that criticism and pent-up frustrations!?
Today is the day! Today the truth is named! Because children are just too loud, teenagers really stink, adults are boring and the elderly are sloooooow! Voilà. Growing up is not just getting bigger, older and grayer. There is much more to it. It is also exciting, just like memories of youth and discovering each other's living world. Maybe we also have a lot in common in that? Do we not look more like each other than we think?
KAPOT IRRITANT is a theatrical audio performance that fixes a meeting between different ages and makes them think about each other, about growing up and getting older.
Children, young people, adults and the elderly go on a safari together through all stages of life. With headphones and each from a different perspective, they meet each other in a playful, interactive way and collide with quite a few prejudices.
IMPORTANT: bring all parents, grandparents, teenagers, children, godchildren, gen X'ers, gen Z'ers and gen Alpha's that you can find, because the performance works best if many different ages participate!
tg maybe takes connecting generations as a common thread through her work. With KAPOT IRRITANT, Marieke Anthoni and Aline Isabelle Cornelissen bring young and old together in a playful investigation into growing up and getting older. With the help of poetry, humor and their own visual theater language, they try to deal with shared, and sometimes sensitive themes. They deliberately use their imagination to find a hold for the greatness of the everyday. As a result, they appeal to both a young and an adult audience.
