BLAAS! - Schoolvoorstelling

Hoor je hem? Die onzichtbare stroom van lucht?

Wanneer een dromerige kleermaker met klare klanken en gekke geluiden

oude jassen nieuw leven inblaast gebeurt er iets bijzonders…

‘BLAAS!’ is een luchtige en muzikale bewegingsvoorstelling voor

kinderen tussen 3 en de 7 jaar oud.

BLAAS! is gecreëerd en gespeeld door Hanne Schillemans, Ralph Timmermans en Leon Van Egmond

BLAAS! is een productie van Spin Echo  - https://www.spinecho.net/

‘Onovertroffen, mooi en oprecht.’

‘Geen woorden voor … prachtig!!’

‘Het enthousiasme en de energie spatten van het podium!’

‘Ik werd diep geraakt door de persoonlijke getuigenissen.’

‘Heel hard genoten, ook van de choreo, ontroerende momenten!’

When the paths of a lonely harmonicaplayer and a teasing dancer cross unexpectedly, a dreamlike interdisciplinary duet takes place.

Created and performed by: Hanne Schillemans and Leon Van Egmond

HABITAT - Spin Echo

Spin Echo's last two performances illuminated the blurring lines between technology and mankind. Due to the Covid-19 pandemic, we seem forced to merge even more with our screens and gadgets. To make a virtue of necessity we throw ourselves at the mercy of the technological Gods as we host an interdisciplinary Zoom performance called ‘HABITAT’.

 
In ‘HABITAT’ our private house will become a public stage where creatures stroll. Watch the locked in inhabitants in every living space, from the kitchen to the bedroom, from the garden to the bathroom.
Expect performance, dance, music, characters, madness, joy, and intimate everyday life. We’ll create 2 different episodes of ‘HABITAT’ which we will be broadcasting on the following dates: 
​
HABITAT 1
Friday February 12th: 20h30 - 21h30
Saturday February 13th: 20h30 - 21h30

Reactions from the audience

" From the first movement on, I couldn't restrain my tears. I understood every move, every symbolic reference, every expression. As I am a partner from an ex breast cancer patient this perfomance touched me very deeply. I can still not talk about it without getting emotional."

" True, emphatic, daring, subtle and unbelievably courageous"

" very touching performane, dance and music lift each other up"

This is a dutch spoken performance with dance and poetry. No english translation available

Deze korte voorstelling gaat over kunst: “een artificieel trauma dat niet zeer doet, maar wel je ogen kleurt”. Of is het iets anders? Hoe dicht kunnen twee paar armen en benen komen in hun omschrijving, middels dans en poëzie? Liefst concreet als het realiteitsbesef van een driedimensionale cavia. Een kunstenaar proeft nog oerboem in zijn tandplak of is geen kunstenaar.

Arnoud Rigter deed als dichter zo’n vijfhonderd optredens. Hij publiceerde een aantal multidisciplinaire bundels (met titels als Het duimzuigend fossiel en Zoek de zeesnuiver). Daarnaast stond zijn werk in tientallen literaire bladen en bloemlezingen (zoals De Gids, Het Liegend Konijn, DW B, nY, DBNL en 25 Jaar Nederlandstalige Poëzie 1980 – 2005).

‘African loops’ is an intimate, interdisciplinary duet between by a cellist and a dancer.

Longing for contact, help and affection she carefully but consistently approaches him. Who will be dominant, who is the puppet master? The carousel never stops turning, until it does...

Madames, you know them all.

Well-mannered, settled and distinguished

Aiming to fall into society’s grace

Though they never escaped their own dreams

Hiding behind decency and everyday things

Are the sneaky desires to the sins they’ve never committed
