Theatre

Trainer

Toneelhuis, Abke Haring

An inpidual extricates himself from the world of anonymous order and idle prattle, collective control and constant bustle

and goes in search of a different consciousness

beyond himself.

We witness his quest, his vulnerability and growing understanding,

we see his transformation

as he takes leave of the old.

TRAINER is a both a mental and sensual exercise in awakening awareness,

a contemporary parable which speaks with image and movement as well as words.

I felt like an animal

losing bits of my coat

when hoping for some daylight

I fought for a way out of my body

to the unfamiliar

the light so glaringly bright

I didn’t know what I wanted to find

the type area

the relationship between left and right

is blindingly simple

at home
