The Way You Sound Tonight
Arno Schuitemaker |
Prepare to have your senses set ablaze. The Way You Sound Tonight is a hallucinatory dance performance that sets everything circling, flying and echoing. The five performers whirl around like all the sounds and all their myriad vibrations, while the audience discovers the many angles of the echo.
Uniquely original choreographer Arno Schuitemaker has turned to Metamorphoses III for inspiration, the book in which Ovid took down the adventures of Echo, chattiest among the nymphs. The Way You Sound Tonight appears to take place inside an acoustic ballroom, which serves to strengthen the magic of the changes. Distance turns to closeness in an instant. Sound and dimension play a game of tag with your eyes and ears. Irregularity rules, resulting in tangible contrasts. Arno Schuitemaker is stretching the experience of being inside an auditorium.
Schuitemaker came to Theaterfestival Boulevard before. With this high-energy show he is venturing onto the main stage.
The show will premiere during Holland Festival 2018.
