€8–14
Two living rooms that rotate on their axis. A boy who dreams forward, a woman who looks back. And the discovery that the world is bigger than your own four walls. In the unique decor of POR, two living rooms literally rotate on their axis. In one, a boy tries to find his place among the moving boxes. In the other, an older woman surrounds herself with precious memories. Both look in a different direction: the boy dreams forward, the woman looks back. But neither of them really takes a step. Gradually they discover that there is more than their own living world. Routine makes way for curiosity, and without realizing it, these two opposites poke each other out of their familiar walls towards a new beginning. POR shows a unique clash and fusion of generations, in which memories and dreams make way for the power of the here and now. POR is for children who can't wait for what's coming, adults who prefer to stay where they are, and the rest who hang somewhere in between. “A gentle, moving dance and circus theater performance about the difference in clock and (ex)perienced time. Yet this dance with the timepiece turns out differently than you expect, because the inventive decor is used in a movable and meaningful way.” - Annette Embrechts, Volkskrant Dans and cast Andrea Beugger and Marceau Ehrmann Tekst and director Jonas Vermeulen Choreografie Piet Van Dycke
