Het verdwalen in kaart

Toneelhuis, Lotte van den Berg, OMSK

"The thought that my death is unimportant fills me with joy." That one sentence - which is created as an image when one of the 46 characters uses water to trickle the letters onto the dry concrete floor - underlies an otherwise wordless production but one rich in imagery.

Most of the actors in Het verdwalen in kaart (Losing one's way mapped) live in Dordrecht, where Lotte van den Berg has been at work with her new company OMSK since January 1st 2009. The question she has been working on with these people - along with a handful of actors - is simple: how do you come home to a place you don't yet know, and conversely, can you get lost in a society that is so highly 'regulated'? Dressed in rather worn festive costumes, the characters constantly whirl onto the stage from the sides, creating powerful but seemingly casually formed images of people who briefly do or experience something 'together'. Immediately afterwards this cohesion is broken as the inpiduals go their separate ways, Het verdwalen in kaart.

Het verdwalen in kaart is a co-production between OMSK and Schouwburg Kunstmin and was realized with the support of the Doen Foundation, SNS REAAL Fonds, VSB Fonds, Dordrecht city council, Participatiefonds Cultuur Dordrecht and Toneelhuis Antwerp.
