The crow knows where the children go
Alexandra Broeder/ Het Zuidelijk Toneel |
When it ends, the crows will come. That’s for sure. Oh and also, someone you may have lost a long time ago. They’re also coming. But you’re up fi rst, grownup. You enter a secret place where children lead their lives, hovering between dream and reality. Battered souls, they are, and they are inviting you to a ritual performance. In The crow knows where the children go – which is performed by sixteen children from the province of Brabant – Alexandra Broeder (Rotterdam, 1978) offers a new exploration of the relationship and balance of power between children and adults. A stream of
consciousness about childhood, intoxication and crows. For they will come. There’s no escaping it.
Note: The crow knows where the children go is a show for grownups.
There are free shuttle busses available from the festivalsquare to the location of the show. These busses leave half an hour before the show starts.
