A simple composition about the endless way people and objects are exchangeable (but actually we just want you to wake up in the house of someone else).
You're dreaming about an empty room in a mansion. In the room next door you hear somebody walking. You don't know why, but you know who it is. You want to walk over. Through a door you enter a second room, one that is also empty, just like the rooms after it. You go up the stairs and down the stairs. Everything is empty. (Somewhere you hear footsteps). You walk until you end up back where you started and you realize it's an endless string of empty rooms. You wake up en dress yourself quietly. You go outside and leave the key behind.
This is where you start.
In this physical and visual performance Frascati-artist Gerben Vaillant brings (A sense of an ending, 2023) in collaboration with director Fleur van den Berg (Gaan, 2012) and performers Charlotte Gillain and Felix Schellekens together different fascinations. The lonely painting of empty rooms by German artist Ben Willekend, a relationship that has run its course, the marginal art of pantomime and the endless parade of people who walk away after a bad one-night stand. A performance that is just as sexy as it is lonely, where the endless convertibility of people and objects becomes tangible and where at the same time the performers have nothing left to lose.
