Waste me
Welcome to the backside of the throwaway society. Six performers emerge from a large mountain of waste. They throw things, garbage and each other away. They become stuff, the stuff is their life. Factory movements and herd behavior alternate. Is it Utopia? Did they ended up in hell? They are waiting for something, a redemption, a new world. Can they break free from this self-made prison?
Waste Me is a dance performance by choreographer and theater maker Cecilia Moisio, a strong commentary on the consumer society that has gotten out of hand and the desire to have more and more. But also a firm plea for less consumption.
Sometimes it seems as if all that waste dissolves on its own and we forget that the earth is warming. It's happening somewhere out there, far away from us and it doesn't affect us. Not yet…
Cecilia confronts you with the harsh reality, but also takes you to a world where people are more valuable than things, where happiness is more important than possessions. To the real Utopia…
Waste Me is a mix of dance, theatre, trash art and live music, performed on a special location.
Engaged theater of this level is rarely experienced.
The flexibility and agility of the dancers are expressed in an expressive movement pattern.
The powerful imagery, supported by the intense music of Marlon Penn, hits like a punch in the face.

"Tranen liepen over mn wangen!
Zo confronterend om op zo’n prachtig eiland met onze overconsumptie te worden geconfronteerd. Het kwam als een krachtige stoot binnen:De boodschap en oproep.
En nadien, verdriet, wat doen we de wereld en de jongeren en generaties na ons aan?
Wat kan ik naast bewust leven nog meer doen of laten?
J, ik ga me aansluiten bij E.R.
Mijn onmacht ombuigen naar handelen.
Dank, dank, dank voor deze bijzondere voorstelling en wat het bij mijheeft nagelaten."
