Huisje Boompje Beestje (6+)
In a world full of fixed roles and rehearsed fairy tales, a simple game of house, tree, animal becomes a place where everything can be reimagined.
Duration 75 minutes
Genre Theater-family
Language Dutch
Playing with the rules of the story
We grow up inside stories that seem to define everything already. Who the hero is, who cares, who fights, who dreams. Good and bad. Boy and girl. As if everything is already fixed before you have had any chance to choose.
In Huisje Boompje Beestje, that system is opened up. An ordinary play corner becomes a place where rules shift and roles no longer feel natural. What starts as a game grows into a world full of unexpected turns, humour and confusion.-|-
The performance shows how you can get stuck in stories that seem “true”, but also how you can reshape them. Between expectations and desires, space emerges to create something new. Not neat, not predictable, but alive and free.
