Patrícia Corrêa & Liesje van den Berk
Haan galo is a duo-performance of Patrícia Corrêa and Liesje van den Berk about relation, game and control. The eye connection is an important part of our work. Two persons are connected in there own game… a voice without sound and a powerful profound bond. We also use subtle elements to communicate our game with the audience. For example the metronome, that marks the pulse of the game. The sound communicated with the audience this intimate game that we were playing.
Eye contact that never breaks, increasing emotions, control, breathing, control, fight, control, friendship, control, tears, control and more breathing… We talk with the eyes!

Martine van Ditzhuyzen, Barbara Ellison
As an actress Martine van Ditzhuyzen has a preference for physical acting and object manipulation. She worked a lot in children theatre as a puppet player. Three years ago she founded the collective Trickster with Marielle Verdijk en began to give multimedia performances based on improvisation. Also she started her study in theatre science. In her first “solo” performance ‘The story I live by’ she will explore the concept of identity en storytelling. She links objects with her storytelling to underline the influence of the outside world on the way she looks back, interprets, gives sense and talks about some of her live events. Who will tell the story; will it be she or the objects? What story will be told and will it be the objects story or her story? She asked composer and performer Barbara Ellison, also a member of Trickster, to join her in the performance.
