360
Protagonist in a moving composition.

Come and sit close to the performance and become a protagonist of this moving composition. Or stay on the side. Because once we are allowed to touch each other again, how close do you want to get to a stranger? 360, directed by Benjamin Kuitenbrouwer and Hanneke Meijers, provides a range of proposals.

In this dynamic performance, two acrobats invite you to be a part of the audience on stage. The performance is driven by 'What if' questions. They are directorial hints that influence the acrobatic play of the acrobats, the audience and their rolling stools. The performance takes place around and with the audience. With bravura, sometimes playfully sometimes intimately, the performers share their athletic movement skills. From their mobile position, the audience inevitably becomes part of a group process and co-director of the performance. 

The performance invites to make contact, to touch, to be part of and to influence. Or none of this. 360 wants above all to direct an unforced gathering in which the audience slowly opens up again.

"360 is a short performance that uses the space - the audience, but also the elements in the environment - in a surprising way. The performers are very alert and have a sense of humour." — Theaterkrant.nl
