Jabberwocky


Inspired by Lewis Carroll's poem, Jabberwocky plays out an ever-changing logic in an environment where it is challenging to carry out the most common tasks. Dislocating meaning though ambiguity, plurality and uncertainty addresses the problem of understanding raised in the fantasy world of Alice. In a de-centered universe, as in the puzzle of dreams, one might encounter cats that disappear but leave their smiles behind.

Danced by Ilan Gold, Cornelia Hanselmann, Valerie Kommer. Vincent de Munck, Aleksandr Szvikov, music by Monika Neumann and costume by Nozomi Kume
Jabberwocky premiered last May in Enschede and was later presented in Amsterdam at the Openluchttheater Vondelpark/ITS Festival.
