“Solace“ presents the unique liaison between a child and strange, mysterious figures. Reminiscences and flashbacks of a forgotten past converge in a desert like space, creating images solely connected by memories. The resulting nonverbal dialogue between the living being and the objects, consisting only of gestures, raises questions about our own relationship to solitude and loneliness.
Supported by the NATIONALES PERFORMANCE NETZ Guest Performance Fund for Theatre, which is funded by the Federal Government Commissioner for Culture and the Media and the Departments of Culture and Arts of the German federal state.
