Tavern Michelle

Ballet Dommage + BRONKS
  • 8+
  • LNP
SSBU, Blauwe Zaal
Start 15:00, End 15:50

In the Tavern Michelle, two hard-working figures attempt to survive the day.
They pass the time by waiting for what is to come and wallowing in the memory.

Until unforeseen silence crawls into the clothes.
The squeaking of its own ear,
the bubbling of the stomach
and swallowing the scream.

Tavern Michelle melts from a desolate mess and misty emptiness.
No monsters of speech wander around, it’s just the absence of the horror that scares the hell out of it.
Tavern Michelle is about the elusiveness of fear and the discomfort of emptiness.
The physical visual theater language of Ballet Dommage becomes madness and tragedy in an unparalleled way.

“Tavern Michelle […] is a true adventure for both children and adults. Children can marvel at the crazy actions of the two waiters and adults can muse about the meaning behind this melancholic performance. For both, the performance is a mix of depth and abstraction, which even makes time stand still.” – e-cetera – Charlotte Durnajkin

About the creators

With Ballet Dommage, the theater company of Katrien Valckenaers and Maxim Storms, the audience is part of the performance as themselves. Their work is absurd, alienating and adventurous.
