Oerol 2016
10-19 June 2016. Oerol Festival. Theater and performances on many locations on the beautiful island Terschelling (in the north of the Netherlands). Impressive encounter between human bodies and nature in the dunes at sunrise in NIDO/Rizoma 2016 by Compania Sharon Fridman; full experience of trust in Curve (Scheigman & Het Houten Huis); a "cinematographic" looking back at the present in Re-enactment of the Now (Theater Utrecht/Davy Pieters); spectacular dance, 'club poetry' and music in Mecahnical Ecstacy (Club Guy & Roni / Slagwerk Den Haag), Kwaku festival hosted an oerol-edition and George and Eran offer solutions for World Peace in the finale part of their acclaimed trilogy. Razor sharp and so true. Here a few impressions.
