A Game of You

>>SAVE YOUR MONEY - BUY 3 TICKETS OR MORE<<

for those who don’t know us yet
there’s seven of us
craving to spend some time with you
to get under your skin, if possible
to get to know you better than we know ourselves
some say we’re forward, inquisitive, manipulative
or downright evil.
some claim we can’t be trusted.
rest assured, they are wrong.
we’re players
and our intentions are always sincere.
our sole purpose in unreal life
is to let you find out who you might be
and get entangled in the game you play
you’ll be safe
we’re doing it for you

How quickly is a first impression formed and what do we project on to others? Ontroerend Goed wants to capture those fleeting moments of perception. They want to get to know you exactly the way you are! - exactly the way you are! Some claim they can’t be trusted. But rest assured: they claim that their intentions are always sincere. After an international tour this acclaimed Belgian performance is shown for the first time in Berlin!

DURATION 30 - 55 Minuten DIRECTION Alexander Devriendt WITH Lisa Schamlé, Joeri Smet, Aurélie Lannoy, Joeri Heegstra, Mieke Versyp TECHNIQUE Tom Daniels, Thibaut Wohlfahrt
