Let yourself be carried away on a poetic journey through the landscape. howtodisappear invites you to slow down and reflect on the traces we leave in nature—everywhere. Does that make us bad? The makers welcome you to Oerol right in the midst of the creative process and are open to feedback on their work.
Theatre maker Hannegijs Jonker leads you on a walking journey through the dunes—a philosophical search for balance between humans and nature. Guided by poetic wordplay, music, and surprising visual interventions in the landscape, you’ll delve deeper and deeper into this rather complex relationship. At times it feels dark and confronting, then hopeful and full of empathy. Are we bad, simply because we’ve permeated everything?
At Oerol, you’ll get a unique glimpse into the interdisciplinary creation process. Experience an early, raw version of the performance, which will premiere later this year. Afterwards, there will be a discussion with the makers.
howtodisappear is part of the Werkplaats. Within the Werkplaats of Oerol, both emerging and established creators are given space to develop location-inspired work throughout the year, often in collaboration with partners. During the festival, several of these artists-in-residence explicitly invite you, the audience, to become part of their work in progress.
