Delivery of masks and costumes to the New Building
Entrance to the barn stage in the New Building
The Kitchen show in the barn stage
A detail that touched me the most was the puppet’s eyes. They were made to appear shut or sleepy throughout the show and only when she liberates herself with what she realises, she flies, hovering over the audience. Then I saw that her eyes were now open. A tiny, yet powerful image of the magic of movement and perspective.
The New Building
The main stage
The World Can’t Wait Dances
The power of this war dance is beyond words and photographs convey only so little.
The Garden Society interludes of Hope in face of despair of the dances of war.
We all collaborate in our own demise and in shedding and wiping of tears.
On torture
The friendly Garden Society again
“Construction” workers keep “posting” the signs and announcements
Audience in horror.
O’ Fortuna! The power of violence
The arms of the Law: one points, the other commiserates
The powers that force us on our knees
Or at the execution wall
Resisting for space
The process of demarcation
“Construction” workers at work again
When you don’t resist, it all gets shoved down your throat
The Angel, the Revolutionary, the Visionary, the Resistance dances out to be among the abused
The Angel dances to face the Monster
The Encounter
The Angel sacrifices her wings
The Dance of the emboldened Monster
The Encounter
Public cleaners

The Dance on Silence
Hung
The scream. Then sweep away the shattered lies
And out we swept it all!
