Sammy Van den Heuvel — scenography

Each space grows within a specific frame that is formed through conversations; with the director, with the choreographer, with the text, the music, the material, with the dramaturg, with the production team, with the artists and builders in the workshops, with the stage technicians. Ultimately, the built space engages in a conversation with the performers, and, through them, in a conversation with the audience.

Tipping point

Made entirely out of steel, this mysterious object it is not quite a shipwreck washed ashore or the ruins of some kind of military devide in the desert, but what it does is connect. Weighing more than a ton, it demands the atmost concentration and collaboration from the performers to balance it and create space for solos and partnerwork.
