Four incredible actors assume all the roles (…) With no superfluous gestures or effects, with only a few props and tremendous talent, they magnificently bring to life the language of Agota Kristof (…) One leaves the play won over and convinced that theatre like this can still move us for centuries to come…

Le Soir, 2000



 
By Agota Kristof
Adaptation/Directed by De Onderneming
 

 

When presenting a trilogy, of course, why not all of it? In this case a clever, enigmatic distillation of the second and third novels (The Proof and The Third Lie). Now an adult, Lucas suffers from the absence of his twin, though he cannot even prove the latter’s existence. Just as the border opens and a reunion appears to be imminent, everything becomes muddled and confused. Thus begins a mysterious and captivating disarray of identity that intermingles lies, reality and fiction to constantly confound the truth. Sustained by the poetic and heartrending creative force of Agota Kristof, De Onderneming probes the twists and turns of memory and the heartbreak of exile.
