Première 1994, Amsterdam
A collage of stories about love; a kaleidoscopic performance that carries you away in a dream of poetry, drama and dance.
Inspired by: the letters of Abélard and Heloise; Oscar Wilde’s ´Salome´; poetry of Federico Garcia Lorca, Anna Achmatova and Marina Tsvetaeva; de Marquis de Sade; the story of Narcissus; and the theatre works of van Tenessee Williams, Naomi, Colm Fagan, Nick Leslie and others.
