injuries & remedies Simon Baetens & Micha Goldberg

What to expect

injuries & remedies is a performance by Simon Baetens and Micha Goldberg.

The description calls it De pijn van het bestaan.

Two performers ask each other questions about pain and uncertainty and give their thoughts and feelings a voice and a body.

They give each other advice, confront each other and comfort each other, so a continuous conversation develops.

The conversation is about asking questions again and again, and it shows what we really feel inside.

The performance alternates between what really happened and what is invented, with humour and honesty about feelings.

Simon and Micha use dark humour and self-criticism, and share confessions that are not always clearly true.

Their world brings everyday things and dreams together.
