In the letters that follow, this reality becomes concrete: wine, washing-powder, the Delhaize supermarket and the inevitable steak and chips. A breeding ground for one big parasitic system of symbols.
On 1st April 2007 Willy Thomas and Benjamin Verdonck decided to use the more than a hundred letters that have accumulated so far as a starting point for a new theatrical performance.
This is consequently a performance about performances, visits to the Delhaize supermarket, nocturnal adventures, friendship and voyages of discovery into the fridge.
"Twenty-six attempts preceded the present genesis, all of which were destined to fail. The world of man has arisen out of the chaotic heart of the preceding debris; he too is exposed to the risk of failure, and the return to nothing. “Let’s hope it works” exclaimed God as he created the World, and this hope, which has accompanied all the subsequent history of the world and mankind, has emphasized right from the outset that this history is branded with the mark of radical uncertainty."
