Formation Silvia | YOU CLAP FOR ME NOW

In the organizer's words:

At the beginning they present themselves in a variety suit, soon they are on stage in a short shirt. Is this liberation - no longer having to produce anything, not even themselves? Only: the applause might be missing. This longed-for confirmation from the outside that makes all the effort worthwhile. Or is it not? YOU CLAP FOR ME NOW by Silvia (MENSCHENDINGE) is about the question: What do you applaud for? And what do you want to applaud for? Three great performers from three generations and countries - Emmanuel Edoror, Marie-Laure Fiaux, Matthias Maat - embark on a tragicomic trip between the pressure of expectations, the struggle for attention and the fear of failure. Always on the run. And all under the spotlight. Jedrusiak's players explore the poles between power and powerlessness with a love of experimentation, subtle humor and a high degree of physicality. "An unusual evening that manages to be both entertaining and thought-provoking." (WN)
