Lotte van den Berg - T01988278505UK Premiere. Award-winning director Lotte van den Berg is considered one of a new generation of artists described as the ‘young Dutch minimalists’. Stillen is a wordless meditation on the silent games people play, sometimes tender and sometimes cruel. Focusing on the relationships between six performers, Stillen explores the power of movement with an intensity that is alternately uplifting and forlorn. Resisting categorisation, van den Berg’s work can nevertheless be characterised by a pared-down style and devoted attention to detail. Preferring to do without texts, her work sits between the worlds of mime, dance and theatre – creating a bold, fresh performance style which comes to the UK for the first time.Producer Toneelhuis & Sophiensaele.
