In a head under high tension
The solo ‘Silver Plate’ dives deep into a head and lets thoughts derail further and further into space. Vanuit Sylvia Plaths diaries and novel create Lucie Plasschaert and Jesse Vandamme an incisive solo, a radical, poetic investigation into how it feels to think today. Because in a time of performance pressure, self-discipline, and an overcrowded outside world that imposes itself, the mind sometimes seems to want to disappear completely. ‘Silver Plate’ is not a classic adaptation but a theatrical collision with Plath's struggling voice. Dialogue becomes an answer to suffocating individuality: a way not to remain alone in thinking.
