(Re)Set

For a two-week period, a group of young talented performers aged between 15 and 25 immerse themselves in the world of musical theatre. This summer, they create the performance RE(SET), coached by a multi-talented artistic team: Benjamin Vandewalle, Fatou Traoré, Berlinde Deman, Stef Heeren, Els Mondelaers and J BOY.

RE(SET) wi l be a performance about transition, change, metamorphosis, ending and starting again. Setting and resetting. RE(SET) is also about vulnerability and being touched: about searching for safety, the fear of letting go and alowing the metamorphosis to happen; about blending into the group and retreating behind your own facade, your own identity. We draw inspiration from ancient sources like Ovid's Metamorphoses, but also from the present day: a time of change, vulnerability and uncertainty, but also of dreams and possibilities.

(RE)SET is a collaboration between TRANSLAB and DE SINGEL Summer Sessions
