»It conveys this existential sense of loss in a market- and consumer-driven world, articulated in sentences reminiscent of the hysterical discourse theatre of René Pollesch—an artist to whom Falk Richter stands very close in his critique of capitalism and the economy of emotions.«

In their project TRUST, Falk Richter, author and director, and Anouk van Dijk, dancer and choreographer, and an ensemble made up of actors from the Schaubühne and dancers from the anoukvandijk dc company, explore the shaky foundations and mechanisms of human bonds against the background of current crises. Relationships build up and break down in ever shorter time-scales; they become a resource in an increasingly intense competition. Binding, seperating. Buying, selling. A picture is presented of human beings who, over the years, have radically intensified modern individuality and celebrated independence as an ideal.
A co-production with anoukvandijk dc
