What to expect
Adriaan Van Aken starts from Felix Timmermans' novella De zeer schone uren van Juffrouw Symforosa, begijntjen.
The small story gets a new, contemporary layer.
Symforosa quietly falls in love with the gardener who comes to prune her grape arbor, but she stays silent; just when she almost dares to speak, the story takes an unexpected direction.
The story turns on the moment of doubt: to speak or not, to act or stay in what does not happen.
The performance links that intimate world to the music of Pixies and their album Surfer Rosa.
