The Smallest Things

Description

„The Smallest Things“ is a melancholic and humorous duo that creates a performance out of nothing right in front of the audience without any tricks. In this new production, Marc Oosterhoff and Owen Winship move on an almost empty theater stage. There are only a few objects, some spotlights, and a speaker for sound playback. Gradually, they explore the possibilities offered by this environment. Something emerges from nothing. The two performers use what is available and, thanks to their acrobatic bodies and some props, gradually transform an empty space into a show of small tricks and few words. In this call to make do with what is available, the performers control the light and sound directly from the stage, allowing the audience to gain insight into all the tricks that make up a performance. The spectators witness the construction of the various elements that make up a scene and at the same time have the opportunity to be emotionally touched by it. A kind of consensual illusion, into which they surrender out of joy for the play. In search of wonder about the smallest things, these two men set out without ever losing sight of the audience. When everything seems lost and our actions sometimes appear meaningless, this show chooses to focus on the small things that are here and to use our agency to transform our environment into something... that is a little less bad. It is said that the devil is in the details, but perhaps love or hope are also there — who knows? Note: This text was translated by software for machine translation and not by a human translator.
