Goat Song
Espen Hjort/ Theater Utrecht |
What if you no longer want to be a human being, but something else? A goat, for instance. What would be the consequences? Are human beings even capable of becoming something else? What would it take to undergo such a transformation? In the wordless stage performance Goat Song, Mees Borgman portrays a woman who wants to find herself by disappearing from herself.
The creator is the Norwegian director Espen Hjort [1989] who graduated in 2016 with a highly praised Hamlet. NRC and De Groene Amsterdammer have called his work miraculous and intriguing. The starting point for Goat Song were Hjorts vacations in the Norwegian landscape and his worries about the dichotomy between man and nature.
