Playing Ensemble Again And Again

 ”In theatre you never know what is going to happen next. Except that there will always be a bow at the end.”In Playing Ensemble Again and Again six performers play a group in theatre. They start where most other groups finish: with a bow!As they slowly move together through time and space, they think about the piece they have just performed. Step by step they (re)construct the lives they live(d) together.Funny, dramatic and sad at the same time, Playing Ensemble Again and Again is a performance about getting together and falling apart. Concept, choreography and direction: Ivana MüllerPerformers: Katja Dreyer, Karen Røise Kielland, Bojana Mladenovic, Pedro Inês, Daniel Almgren-Recén, Rodrigo SobarzoText: Ivana Müller, Bill Aitchison and the performersLighting design and technique: Martin KaffarnikSound design : Viljam NybackaArtisticadvise: Bill AitchisonProduction: Nadine Zijp/ LISAManager: Inge Koks/ LISAPlaying Ensemble Again and Again is produced by LISA (NL) in coproduction with STUK Kunstencentrum Leuven (BE), Productiehuis Rotterdam (Rotterdamse Schouwburg) (NL) and Kampnagel Hamburg (D).hanks to: De Melkweg/Anita van Dolen, Nils DeCoster and Paz Rojo. This project was made possible with the support of: Amsterdams Fonds voor de Kunst, Nederlands Fonds voor de Podiumkunsten+dates :31 October 2008 PREMIERE1 November 2008STUK, Leuvenwww.stuk.be3, 4 (Dutch Première),5, 6 December 2008Theater Frascati, Amsterdamwww.theaterfrascati.nl8,9 January 2009Rotterdamse Schouwburg, Rotterdamwww.schouwburg.rotterdam.nl21, 22  January 2009Theater Kikker, Utrechtwww.theaterkikker.nl23 January 2009Chassé Theater, Bredawww.chasse.nl31 January 2009Plaza Futura, Eindhovenwww.plazafutura.nl18 April 2009, LOW Festival, Budapest, Hungary, www.lowfesztival.hu 22, 23 May 2009Kampnagel , Hamburgwww.kampnagel.de
