In an old factory, under a tree, in a meadow or even on mud flats: site-specific theatre can be, and is, everywhere. TIN in association with the Vrede of Utrecht (VvU - Treaty of Utrecht) presents the dynamic exhibition designed by Theun Mosk, Ergens & Overal (Anywhere & Everywhere), about Dutch site-specific theatre.
During the summer of 2010, the exhibition has travelled to four other site-specific festivals, De Parade, Over het IJ, Theaterfestival Boulevard and the Zeeland Nazomer festival.
Ergens & Overal is a journey of discovery for the senses in the wonderful world of site-specific theatre. The exhibition can be visited at the festivals and is suitable for children. Experience the effect of this form of theatre at first hand. There are ‘experience huts’ with peepholes and packed with sound. You will experience, feel and see various forms of site-specific theatre. Visitors are granted an insight into the hearts and minds of site-specific theatre makers and the motivation of makers to create theatre ‘on-site’.
Site-specific theatre becoming more popular
Site-specific theatre is becoming ever more popular and specialist festivals are gaining more and more visitors every year. At the same time, more and more young theatre makers are choosing to dedicate themselves to this form of theatre, searching for a new experience with the audience and looking outside of traditional theatres for their inspiration.
Design by Theun Mosk
The exhibition has been designed by Theun Mosk, one of the most trendsetting designers/lighting designers/theatre makers today. His design is a combination of installation, exhibition, performance and meeting place. Theun Mosk received the Charlotte Köhler Prize in 2007and he was one of the Dutch designers selected for the Prague Quadriennal in 2008. He made the site-specific production Walking (2008) and Wiek [Windmill Sail] (2009) with Robert Wilson and Boukje Schweigman respectively, for the Oerol Festival, Terschelling.
This exhibition has been put together by Theater Instituut Nederland in association with the Vrede van Utrecht and the participating festival organisations.
