VICTOR
a work created together with director Peter Seynaeve
A duet for a boy and a man.
In VICTOR it’s the bodies that speak. A duet by two bodies, a man and a child. One has already come a long way, the other wants to grow as soon as possible. A sensual game of muscle, but also a power game with unequal weapons. A little story about big and honest, strong and innocent, but above all about wanting to be close. An intimate portrait of a relationship.
In VICTOR the theatre-maker and actor Peter Seynaeve and choreographer and dancer Jan Martens are creating a performance together for the first time. The pieces they have both made previously were in the first place portraits – portraits of individuals, but also of relationships. In addition, VICTOR provides a dance-based response to the earlier work with children onstage (for an adult audience) that was produced at CAMPO.
TANZ october 2013:
Ein Mann, Ein Junge, ein leerer Raum, in den dann und wann der Gesang eines Männerchors sickert: Minimalistisch formatiert und dennoch von unvergleichlicher Wirkung ist "Victor", das einstündige Kammerspiel des belgischen Inszenierungstandems Jan Martens und Peter Seynaeve.
