In 1984 The power of theatrical madness meant the definitive international breakthrough for Jan Fabre. Almost 30 years later Fabre reconstructs his 4.5 hour lasting theater marathon scène by scène, movement by movement with a younger generation of performers.
Speed is the spirit of this age and new media makes today’s performance, if possible, even more radical than it was before. “Nowadays we have a different relationship with the physical body and our sense of time has changed” says Jan Fabre. “Because of that, the performance has become even more substantive, more essential.”
