Teach us to outgrow our madness finally in Belgium!
Teach Us to Outgrow Our Madness will be performed on the 7th of may in De Warande in Tournhout ,Belgium. Teach us…sets out to explore the intense relationships that exist between women living closely together – be it sisters, nuns, witches, best friends, members of a sect, or polygamist wives. The rivalry, the secrecy, the gossip, the cruelty but also the kindness, the bonds, and the unconditional love.
This piece combines dance, live music and storytelling into a horrifying yet liberating experience. Can theater teach us to survive daily live? Can singing and dancing heal a troubled mind? We like to sing and dance Go into a trance We like gore We always want more
