ZONES OF TURBULENCE
Two hours of performance that is in perpetual movement, this piece leaves the spectator hungry for every morsel, from monologues to ramblings to songs that often have the audience humming along. It is a musical and tragic comedy, a stunning work presented by amazingly energetic performers. It will definitely confirm our dependence on Needcompany and director Jan Lauwers, a talented instigator of contemporary Flemish theatre.
 
 
Centred on the actress Viviane De Muynck, his peerless muse, this jewel of a play fluctuates between reality and fiction, humour and solemnity, dance and acting, magic and disillusion. The room in question harbours a secret, a lie that has dominated Isabella's entire life. A veritable recycling firm, Lauwers' hurly-burly theatre is chock-full of exotic objects that are the lifeblood of a century-old legend. Dance, theatre and music are all called upon and employed with a light, passionate touch. The art of this unclassifiable artist is captured in multilevel writing that keeps the audience in a state of turmoil.
