PORK-IN-LOOP sabotages images and statements that approach us through the ether every day. A puddle of moral ruin is overfloating; a relentless supply of images showing thirst for power, abuse of power enters our living rooms. The only reaction imaginable is either a stubborn apathy or a frantic fantasy... Behold: the beast is human!
The performance offers a disturbing keyhole view on four cells where 7 ambiguous, explosive characters are struck by a loss of memory, meaning and the ability to react.
Pork-in-Loop is bizarre and absurd: a sense of perspective seems lost but under the surface, the composition holds an absolute order
Press on Pork-in-Loop
'... a foaming at the mouth in dance in which the performers hold each other as well as the audience in a strangling grip.' (De Volkskrant, Annette Embrechts)
'...theatre of violence, grief and exhaustion. [...] Not only is Pork-in-Loop confronting and thrilling, theatrically the production is tight as a drum as well.' (Brabants Dagblad, Rinus vd Heijden)
'Dynamic and energetic are words that express but half of the power and impact of the physical dance that T.r.a.s.h. presents...' (TheaterCentraal)
Pork-in-Loop is supported by FAPK, Province of Noord-Brabant, City of Tilburg, VSBfonds and Prins Bernhard Cultuurfonds. Pork-in-Loop is a co-production of T.r.a.s.h. and Productiehuis Brabant.
