"It is no exaggeration to say that these kind of experiences will determine the future of the theatre. (....) In this liberating dance performance everything falls into place." Alexander Hiskemuller, Trouw
Seemingly casual yet with impressive precision, If You Could See Me Now appeals for another look, to look again. Three performers set a chilled-out club dance into a mesmerizing wave-like motion, pushing their physical limits until everything morphs into one big chunk of energy.
At maximal and sweaty exertion, the movement flow reinvents itself as luminous and ever-changing impressions, stirring powerful instants of perseverance, resilience and transformative perspective. The performance space dilates, dissolves and shifts. Time gets chopped up then blends back together again.
From ecstasy to turmoil, from build-up to its dismantling, If You Could See Me Now plays with expectations and shakes them up. It finds a tipping point, tilting performers and audience to something new and unreserved: a liberation.
